Also, when I click to delete a Face, I can highlife it but IPad has no delete key! How do I delete it??

Finally, how do I correct merged geometry??

What kind of tools? From which Warehouse?

The iPad version does not use extensions, so if you are downloading from the Extensions Warehouse you won’t have access to them.

Why are you shouting?

When you have something selected (highlighted) all right click options are available in the small tool bar at the bottom of the screen, either immediately via visible icons, or I’m the three dot pop-out.

This is more a technique question, and you would do this the same way as on the desktop version. I would use groups to separate portions and then correct whatever needed to be corrected after pulling the groups apart

Hello All,

Thanks for replying. Shouting was due to frustration; no offense meant. Thanks for the face deletion tip.

But, I simply cannot found the Warehouse tools after downloading and importing into the Application. I’ve looked in SO many locations, but no. The Sketchup Pro book on Kindle was no help, nor were the tutorials. This seems something that should be simple. Doesn’t anyone have the answer?

Thx,

You are not using SketchUp Pro. You are using SketchUp for iPad.

:clap:t2: You cannot load extensions on the iPad. :clap:t2:

If you mean the 3d warehouse, and bringing in models from the web… they should come into your model.

You are right on the version. It is Sketchup GO.

Please correct your forum profile. It helps to avoid confusion and makes it easier for us to answer your questions when the information is correct.

I will. But, what of my question

We’re still waiting for you to clarify what you mean by Warehouse tools that you’ve downloaded. If you are referring to extensions you’ve downloaded from the Extension Warehouse, you’ve already been told several times that SketchUp Go doesn’t have any way to use extensions.

What do you mean by warehouse tools? Have you downloaded models of tools from the 3D Warehouse or you’re talking about plug-ins from the extension warehouse?

You were told already that sketchup on iPad doesn’t allow the installation of plug-ins, it has just native tools.

You cannot use anything from the Extension Warehouse in SketchUp GO.

I’ve said it multiple times now.

Hello Mike (and others who replied);

I had not seen yr replies, just notifications of a literal kind re: warehouse “tools”, which are correctly referred to as “extensions.” Thank you for bringing to my attention that Sketchup Go is a limited-use application. That this provides only for creative ‘basics’ which then have to be more fully realized on a desktop unit is more akin to driving an automobile with handcuffs on rather than the full experience is disappointing. But, I suppose, one should appreciate that even a limited-use application was ported to IPad.

Thank you for your kind patience.

Only reading and replying via email is akin to using the forum with your eyes tied behind your back.

You can always upgrade to the pro version paying just difference minus the time since your license started. When I upgraded from pro to studio y had just two weeks until the renovation of my license and I had to pay less than $20 for those weeks using studio version, of course after that I had to pay the full price of the studio license.

As what comes to modelling tools, anything that can be modelled can be modelled with the tools included in SketchUp Pro, Go or the iPad version, and amazing things have been done with them. Extensions only provide shortcuts to achieving some results faster.

have a look at all the things Royce has produced these last 2 years using the basic native web tool

have a look at what Dany has produced using the basic native ipad tool

the both manage to do more with the basic native tools than many users I see on pro with a screen full of extensions.

edit : fair, going native then :slight_smile:

Not to mention hundreds of years of product design and architecture that have been created before we had 3d modeling on a screen we can carry around with us…

Tools help. A good designer will create good work no matter the tools available.
