Hi Geis, thanks for clarifying the axe issue. I like that your videos are quick, detailed, but not slow....Very informative. I was trying to find an answer to my problem here. I think the answer lies in PERMANENTLY SET up axes or TEMPORARILY set up axes....which I hope got it right now. So for TEMPORARY axes use"align axes" by double clicking on face and PERMANENTLY set up axes by using the toolbox symbol of the axe (part of construction toolbox, on the left).....I will still have to double check if it works the same way in everywhere or just in a group.....Sometimes it takes a bit of effort to figure out the right way of using tools, but it is still more rewarding to use sketchup than use other architectural softwares I used before.....Cheers,

Hi Justin. Just joined the Patreon thing to support your efforts. Really appreciate your tutorials. I've been in the custom woodworking industry for 40+ years and use SketchUp now for everything under the sun. Tried to learn many other CAD programs but never quite got proficient enough to dedicate the time to really learn them. Not so with Sketchup because I find it very intuitive and because of people like you with fantastic tutorials. Took me quite a while to weed through the ones that think they know Sketchup only to find (after too much time) that they just knew enough to bluff their way through. As I get more into learning the finer details of Sketchup, I'll try to bump up my Patron level. Highest regards, Duane

Terrific as usual! Suggestion: if you don't already have this subject in another of your tutorials add best practices for setting model elevation scenes (front, back, sides) by using the axes. I found another tutorial that showed described how to set the green axes upright then save the scene. This is for when the model is not aligned to the original axes and the standard elevation view buttons don't work.

Great tutorial and a boon to users of many experience levels as so often its just not known. One approach I use on homes with a diagonal wing is set one scene of the floor plan or model with axis on that diagonal so I can swap back and forth readily and reliably between normal axis and diagonal. The align axis right click trick in this video is a go to for me. I ised UT twi months back instead of a diagonal axis scene to quickly toggle axes on a huge home with many angles. Super handy, mayhaps worth a shortcut key.
@Thesketchupessentials

Hmmm...probably depends on how often you're changing the axis. If it's only once or twice, maybe not worth a shortcut. If it's constantly, maybe worth looking into...

Really great videos, Justin. This one in particular is particularly powerful. BTW I'd love to see a video dealing with unwanted triangulation of surfaces. It's when a previously flat surface breaks up into a bunch of triangles. And even deleting the face and recreating with a polygon tool will, again break into triangles. I think it's a bug but it happens out there a fair amount (I've seen it in the Sketchup forums). I could get a video to you if you want.

Thanks for the video. It didn't answer the problem i was facing but learned new things about axis thanks to your tutorial. Concerning my own issue, i luckily found after a while how to solve it myself. may be a missing tip for those users who have just like me moved the origin Axis instead of creating a separate one in a component or block. HEre the problem i was having, i saved my SKP file with the origin moved, and when i tried to import this SKP file in another model, it was not the right position, basically because of the Axis being moved in my first SKP file. i couldn't find anywhere a menu button where to set the axis back to the origin until i right clicked on the axis itself and found the option called "reset". The Axis came back to origin. Hope this may help others if they get the same issue.

Good as always, Justin. Q: many of us (I imagine) are proficient with ACAD or similar software and miss some basic handy commands such as mirror, extend, trim, and fillet. I know that folks such as S4U have commands such as mirror taken care of, but could you do a video where you review the various available extensions that mimic the most used CAD commands that are not in SU and/or which SU commands may be good workarounds?

Hi thanks for this video, I've been using SketchUp for about a year now and in fact I've used it to design a house that is currently being built. My house has a 45 degree bend in it and that 45 degrees has driven me nuts as I never took the time to really learn how to best use SketchUp. As an old Auto Cad user I've had to stand on my head to get to grips with SketchUp but man I wish I'd have taken the time learn more about the in's and out's of this powerful software. It's quite something to see a four bedroom house taking shape for real but we've already seen it inside and out thanks to SketchUp. Kind Regards . . Andy

Hey buddy! Yes I second most of your viewers, you are the best at SketchUp tutorials bar none. I've being trying to learn it for longer than I care to admit, but never seemed to find the time to grind at it. I was wondering how to set up Axis according to Cardinals East, West, North, and South, to get realistic shadows in my model. I also would love to have a nice list of best free extensions for Make 2017, since I don't have the $$$ to purchase the pro version. I am also working on a prototype bike part and eventually will need to 3D print from a free version... Thank you!!!

Thanks Justin. This quick to the point video Helped me find the way of aligning an defined axis to a group. I'm still surprised even to this day that Sketchup allows you to right clicking a component then "Change Axis" to change the axis of a component however there is no option to "Change Axis" or similar by right clicking options of a group. I highly recommend Sketchup should fix this workaround (under tools as per your video :) by making options off a right click to something like "Change component Axis" (For components) and "Change group Axis) (For groups, not currently a feature) or any other way. Maybe this was an oversight or they intentionally missed that out thinking that a components (2+ copies in model) changing the axis could be more useful than a one off group, any thought on that?
