Can you please explain how to do Aristo sliding door

[@mehaksheikh8574]

Hi Justin.
Which window and door creation plugin is compatible with sketchup 2021. 1001bit is not. and neither is windows builder. please help!!!

[@_MasiraInamdar]

while using the window panel tool , why does the formed window move on the axis and not on the surface it was created on. Facing this issue since long . someone can pls help?

[@raeezmohammed2133]

when i click the create the panel, its creating 2 rectangles besides the 3 axises and not a window pane. What the heck is wrong....I am fed up

[@TheGamingChad.]

Would you say sketchup is hands down better than blender even with archipack when it comes to architecture designs?

[@Thesketchupessentials]

In my opinion I would say yes - having used both I always seem to come back to SketchUp for architectural modeling. Plus SketchUp has Layout, and there really is no equivalent in Blender. I love both programs, but I'm always back to SketchUp for architecture.

[@TheGamingChad.]

@@Thesketchupessentials the measure tool in sketchup is the only reason I go back to sketchup when it comes to architecture. It does quick precise measurements and allows convenient snappings for cut outs and more. That's the field where sketchup shines whereas blender falls behind. However. When it comes to organic shapes such as weapon stocks blender absolutely crushes sketchup. So much more control and flexibility in blender when using loop cuts and sub-D.

[@TheFasfas123]

pls make a video on shape bender processing , any way to speed it up, during making step rails it continues 3+ hrs , i.e. the process never gets finished......pls help....

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Does it take this long with simpler shapes? It feels like your geometry might be too complex, but I don't know for sure

[@TheFasfas123]

@@Thesketchupessentials...thank you very much for ur reply..!... it dosint take long for simpler shapes.... while making step rails with complex geometry of around 8 to 13 mtrs it takes too much of time...i will have to end sketchup through task manager as it goes on for hrs. Is there any other plug-in free or paid as similar to shape bender..... !... my desktop is amd threadripper 3960x 24 core processor, 64gb ram, rtx 2080 ti 11gb graphics, ssd... so on..... !.... anyway to faster the process if no other plugin...?.... for me rendering image takes hardly 3 to 5min... but shape bender is taking hrs and keeps me waiting till my limit of patience

Unfortunately, it gives crash all the time at complicated sketchup projects.

[@Thesketchupessentials]

Interesting - what tool causes the crash?

[@ealendir6986]

@@Thesketchupessentials I am facing with crashes mostly at opening and window or door frame tools.
