CatchUp Edition 11 - Trimbled

Postby Rich O Brien » Tue Jun 19, 2012 5:06 pm

In this edition of CatchUp....

We had a chance to speak with SketchUp's Product Manager John Bacus about the new move and what has got the SketchUp team excited about the past, present and future

There's also a great step by step tutorial by Wyatt Thompson on using Tree[d] trees in SketchUp. Adriana show how using transparent textures can save you modeling time. FollowMe vs. FollowMe and Keep.

Plus, using the Save a Copy As... command and how the Revolve went from SketchUp to Kickstarter to reality.



To download the Interactive PDF you can go here

or to view in Flipping Page Format online you can go here

As always feel free to comment here as we love feedback.

Regarding the sketchup tip: Save copy as.
Another alternative, if you want a totally automatic versioning system. Filehamster.

great stuff, as usual. it is surely not your fault but perhaps you should know that the tree[d] link is not working.

http://www.frecle.net/index.php?show=treed.about

Great stuff! Thanks to everyone who puts this great publication together, and thanks for including me in it. :D :o FWIW, the tree[d] link works for me in Chrome.

It is safe to assume John is rolling his eyes in the front cover picture because of something I said ;) At least, that is the way it usually goes.
