    is it possible to create sandbox from scratch and then bind the outside perimeter to a 3d contour? in my example i've drawn the outer edges of a slope constrained between a road and the side of a house and it would be very convenient if i could define the outer contours of the area that smoove function wouldn't affect since it raises and lowers the junctions

  • @DocHollidaa

    Hi Justin, thanks for the great how to videos. I was wondering how you would make the road level, from side to side, but also follow the grade of the terrain? I'm not sure if the stamping tool can do this. If you have any ideas please let me know. Thank you.

    • @Thesketchupessentials
      @Thesketchupessentials  7 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hi Charles - honestly, I'm not really sure. I think maybe an extension like instant road might be able to do this? www.valiarchitects.com/subscription_scripts/instant-road-nui - Thanks!

  • @ahmedelattar8259

    Thanks, Justin, please can you make a video on how to make an opening in an assembled wall done in Profile Builder 2, its really draws me back to work with it because of that!!! Thanks in advance

    • @Thesketchupessentials
      @Thesketchupessentials  7 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Hi Ahmed - Unfortunately, I don't know how to do that either! If I had to, I'd probably draw my opening in place, then right click and intersect the geometry with your model, then delete out the leftover geometry. You might be able to do it with a component set in "Cut opening" mode as well, but I'm not 100% sure. Sorry I don't have a better answer for you. You might try leaving a comment on this video - th-cam.com/video/jF9UxYG5Noo/w-d-xo.html - the creator may have some advice for you!

  • @vicarioustube
    @vicarioustube 6 ปีที่แล้ว

    Great thank you Can you show us how to keep a part flat by choosing specific areas that should stay flat. I am training on a hexagonal building that is on a hill with carpark entrances below. The land is 75meters by 75 meters and the building around 35meters across. It takes me like 30minutes to chose all the area to stay flat. Then when smoove the whole area it seems my flat area does stay flat but does not rise. The opposite of what I would like to achieve. Does one chose the lines of the faces ONLY or also the face underneath? Thank you very much

    • @Thesketchupessentials
      @Thesketchupessentials  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Can you use the stamp tool like I talked about about 6:30 in to create the flat area you're looking for? Basically draw the flat area as separate geometry up above, then use the stamp tool to stamp a flat area in your terrain? Thanks!

  • @APBP1
    @APBP1 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    didnt know about the grid. i just make 1 x 1 squares, made group, moved them out, then exploded them and then moved them how i wanted. that tool saves times, really when you have like 300 groups you need to explode.

    • @Thesketchupessentials
      @Thesketchupessentials  5 ปีที่แล้ว

      You mean like typing in an elevation? Not that I'm aware of - I think you just have to click, but you should probably be able to select the top plane after it's set and move it up or down manually

      Yep - there's a few ways to do that. The first thing I showed actually works with imported CAD files. If you want something a bit more powerful, you may check out the extension Toposhaper - th-cam.com/video/-Jd-wiznAbo/w-d-xo.html - Thanks!

      Honestly I'm not sure. I doubt it since it existed as a separate extension in the desktop version, but it's possible they've added it - I haven't used the web version enough to know for sure. Thanks!

      Well generally speaking, you're going to use SketchUp to create models, then export them to a game engine like Unreal or Unity to do the actual programming...Maybe start here - th-cam.com/video/uhw2DwcoXr8/w-d-xo.html

      @ShadowsFallOnWings 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      You'll have to check how your device compares to SketchUp system requirements, it's more likely a problem with hardware than the stamp tool itself. Hopefully it's just that you need a bit more RAM.
