It is a easy (so simple as I may make it in a short while) mockup of how, with easy Trimble growth, we may leverage SU as a LO substitute.
A lot of the options wanted exist already, and the workflow could be attainable already with some plugins.
If Trimble would ease the workflow by tremendous tuning the instruments they have already got, plugin builders may then discover plenty of methods of constructing this HUGE.
If Trimble does nothing, I don’t suppose Plug-in builders could be sufficient to make this straightforward system occur.
- It will want batch export of scenes as 2D Sketchup parts – there are plugins that discover this however not in batch scene export. See plugins by @ene_su @Fredo6 and Curic
- It will want higher administration of xrefed parts – @ene_su already has a plugin for that
- It will want higher dimensioning – there are some plugins that assist rather a lot with dimensioning in SU however they have been principally developed when Format wasn’t right here. This might create the momentum for revisiting that kind of growth.
- it could want higher methods of dealing with Sketchup Exports to DWG, PDF, Raster and so forth, however, @Man Curic, and others have additionally handled that and I wager they’d be prepared to additional develop this
- It will additionally want higher dealing with of a per object linestyle and linewidth. The profile/part/common edge widths aren’t sufficient
So, Sketchup and Format groups, why don’t you give this a thought?
Please check out the drawing:
Check out the CONDOC instruments from Brightman Design. It does a batch export of scenes routinely. I’m not at present utilizing the plug-in however subsequent mission that requires development drawings and I’ll re-subscribe. There’s a 7 day free trial and Mike Brightman has some actually nice video tutorials. Plus it really works with different extensions like Flextools and Medeek Engineering.
Batch export of scenes as 2D skp information?
