Justin - Have learned a lot from you through all your videos, but I can't figure this one out (and you are not alone in showing color elevations). I am just finishing up my first set of construction plans and do not see an easy way to create USEFUL elevations. I created a 3D model of a split-level brick and siding remodel project. In Sketchup everything looks great for a color model with textures. However, for print elevations, the exterior needs hatch patterns for brick, siding and roof so it is not too dark when printed in black and white. I come across about 6-10 different sets of construction plans a month and I never see color elevations (near me they are 2x in cost). Regardless of cost, I could not find an easy way to show the simple hidden line view with hatch patterns for the brick, shingles and siding. I did manage to make 2 shells for the brick (one with texture and the other with a running bond hatch pattern) that I could turn on or off depending on the view. But I still have the really heavy black deck rails, roofing and all the details around the doors and windows that make the view too busy or unbalanced. Other than creating hidden line elevations and then tediously tracing around every door and window in Layout to create a fill area and hope nothing changes in the plans I don't see a solution. Any help would be appreciated.

Yes, Template creations would be nice.

[poshellinteriors]

YES! we need a template creation video
AND, How can I show hidden edges in "Vector" or "Hybrid" rendering in LayOut?

[nurballi]

On the 4.05 sec. How did you do that. If I click the position camera, it direct creates the scene, doesn't allow me to make the thing you made. Thanks for the video by the way.

[cyrilperrier]

Hi ! I struggle adding texture or material pattern inside sections fillings. Is there a good workflow for that ? I only can have them black.
Thank you for your help !

[mrsschoolvideos]

Hi there! Thanks for these videos, they are so helpful. I cannot find the "construction document" style in my in model. Where can I find this? Did you download it from somewhere?

[JaniChetankumar]

How to show hidden components in elevations ?

[SeanXSF]

got a question, can this method be used for large scale projects for example a 30 storey office tower? i mean sketch up to layout

[Trader-yryr]

How much is the sketch up course to learn how to make cabinets designs presentation ?
