With all that said, my only question is this why can’t a layers function isolate the other objects from one another like in most, if not all the other programs ? It seems like a total waste of good programming time to design it and all it does is act as a color coded representation of a group of parts. It’s a great concept for the community as well as the world in general.ĭo I get aggravated at the glitches in programs like this ? Yes.Īm I thankful to have the program and be learning it…? Absolutely ! Is it a knock-off ? Sure it is, but I fully realize that Google has created this program as well as many others for the rest of the world that can not afford expensive software programs, myself included. So, here I am learning SketchUp for personal use. Now I am no longer in school and can no longer afford those (over priced) software programs, although I do still retain my Adobe CS5 Collection that I paid cash for. A glitch in the forum’s code I guess, but I figured it out easily enough and did a “work-around” to get the words that I wanted to appear in bold and italics to appear so. Before I did so, every word following the intended bold word was bold as well. But what you do not realize is that I had to remove the asterisks and input them manually to get the intended effect. Yes, I know that you look at those words and they look fine… now. “Cheap” - an example of this is the fact that while I am typing this reply and double clicked on the words taught and leading and choosing the B icon above to “bold” those words the function didn’t work properly. SketchUp seems to have some of these tools and functions, but looks are evidently deceiving. I grew accustomed to certain tools to have certain functions and was taught the reasoning for such functions and their advantages. Again, I was taught that Maya was the “leading” 3D software in the industry (modeling, film, animation etc… ). I started learning Maya at the same time. I was taught that Adobe Creative Suite was the bench mark of design software in the industry. I learned Adobe Photoshop in college, three or so years of it. Now with that said, and pissing off half (if not the entire) SU community, let me explain. In my opinion, SketchUp is just a cheap “knock-off” of the real thing, that being either Auto-Cad or Maya… you choose. Thank you denisroy, and everybody else too for your input and explanations.įorgive me for saying this, I’ll explain in a second…
