簡易強大的3D建築軟體－Trimble Sketchup Pro 2013 @ kanasi

Sketchup 2013是Trimble自Google轉手後，算是正式發佈的最新版，版本也由之前的8，改為2013

這次Sketchup 2013可說是由一番新的風貌與使用者見面(雖然介面操作等等其實跟之前的8是沒什麼差別的，只是圖示有作一些些修改而已....)

以下次訊均轉自官網：

Introducing Extension Warehouse

What if adding new extensions to SketchUp was as easy as installing an app on your smartphone? In 2013, we’ve made it dead simple to turn SketchUp into exactly what you need it to be. Need a special tool? There’s an excellent chance someone’s already built it. Now you can research, download and install extensions without ever having to leave SketchUp. Every useful extension in one place—that’s the all-new Extension Warehouse.

Pattern Fills

Drawing a sectional view? Now you can fill shapes in LayOut with hatching and other patterns. Choose from a large library of standards—construction materials, geometric tiles, dot screens—or create your own favorites. Patterns can be rotated, scaled or used as-is. You can even combine Pattern Fills with solid colors to create an endless number of variations.

Copy Array

You know how SketchUp lets you easily create multiple copies of an object with your keyboard? Those are called arrays, and now LayOut lets you make them, too. Move a copy, type how many copies you want, type the letter ‘x’ and Enter. Presto! Presto! Presto! Presto! Presto! Copying is fun.

Speedier Vector Rendering

When you need to print a drawing really big, sometimes it’s helpful to vector-render your SketchUp model views. Doing so makes lines look smooth and reduces wait times for all but the most complex models. In the latest version of LayOut, vector rendering is faster than it’s ever been.

Faster Screen Redraw

Every time you zoom, pan or move an entity on the page, LayOut has to re-draw the picture you see on your screen. For this version, we massaged the code so there’s a noticeable improvement in the speed at which this happens. LayOut should feel snappier, especially as your document gets more complex.

Numbered Pages in the Pages panel

Another small but incredibly useful tweak: LayOut’s Pages panel now displays page numbers, which makes it easier to print and export portions of your document.

Curved Label Leader Lines

Creating a jauntily curved callout line for a label used to be a five-step, two-handed operation:

Click. Click. Tool switch. Double-click. Click-drag-with-a-modifier-key.In the latest version of LayOut, curving a label line goes like this:Click-drag.Isn’t progress something?

Dashes in Dimensions

Ask the guy with the 86 foot ceiling if readable dimensions are important. It’s a little thing, but we added dashes to LayOut’s dimension labels to make them easier to read.

Smarter Toolbars in Windows

It used to be that the toolbars for all of your delicious plugins would move around your screen between SketchUp sessions. We heard that drove you crazy, so we re-engineered our Windows UI to make things a whole lot better. In 2013, you can even drag native tool icons between toolbars. Make SketchUp look the way you want it to.

Video Export

Exporting a movie from your SketchUp model is as simple as setting up a few scenes and choosing a few menu options. It’s easy to export videos in any of the three most popular web formats: MP4 (H.264), AVI, and WebM. SketchUp Pro provides complete control over pixel size and other video export settings.

Zoom In More

We increased LayOut’s maximum zoom capability by a factor of ten, from 1000% to 10,000%. At that magnification level, your sofa would be the size of Jupiter. Or thereabouts.
