SketchUp Attribute Viewer

SketchUp Viewer
1

Does SketchUp offer a 3D Viewer that allows you to select a component and view all the Attributes in that component? Similar to Navisworks for AutoCAD.

SketchUp itself is the 3D viewer. In SketchUp, ā€œattributesā€ refers to annotations (arbitrary extra data) stored for each entity. It does not refer to computed properties (length, area) or scene graph objects (model hierarchy, cameras/scenes). If you want to inspect the model hierarchy, use Window ā†’ Outliner.

There are several attribute viewers, for example:

  • Attribute Inspector (1.1: EWH, 3.0: Github)
  • Attribute Editor (EWH)
  • Attribute Helper (EWH, Github)
  • Component Options (shipped with SketchUpā€™s dynamic components extension).

Note that extensions only work in SketchUp Pro or SketchUp Make 2017.

What does Navisworks do?

Navisworks Freedom is a 3D viewer that your customer would use to fly threw a 3D project and select components and a window would open showing price, part number, serial number, date and any other data added when the 3D project was made. I was hoping SketchUp Viewer might offer the same.

in Attribut inspector V3.0.4, after selecting a component nothing is displayed,
So i open the dev-tools; i have this error in devTools

caught ReferenceError: Cannot access ā€˜iā€™ before initialization
at ./dialogs/components/tree-view-subtree.vue (main.js:2:227061)
at n (main.js:2:243414)
at main.js:2:257336
at main.js:2:286156
at main.js:2:286160

i made a work around for solving this problem
You copy/paste the main.js code with the indented line from the dev tool (right click on the extension dialog, go to main.js, copy all the code, and paste to the main.js file), and at line 10988 you remplace i by null
so the code would be like that

        "./dialogs/components/tree-view-subtree.vue": (e,t,n)=>{
            "use strict";
            n.d(t, {
                A: ()=>i
            });
            const o = {
                components: {
                    TreeViewSubtree: null, // here modify i by null
                },
                beforeCreate() {
                    this.$options.components.TreeViewSubtree = n("./dialogs/components/tree-view-subtree.vue").A
                },

@droy60 If you are on Pro then check out this official video, itā€™s possibly as close as you will get. Iā€™m still quite new to SU after being with Archicad for 28 years, so I am still finding my way around.
