Features - Planar, Cylindrical, and Spherical UV projections at any orientation - Box mapping - Tube mapping - great for objects created using follow-me - Quad face mapping - Move, rotate, and scale UVs - Triangulate geometry and remove distorted textures - Save UVs and Load UVs - change materials and maintain UVs.
SuSolid is an extension for SketchUp that can help you prepare the model for 3D Printing.
It is divided in 4 sections :
1. Solid Check section that shows you all the causes that makes your model a non solid.
2. Solid Repair section that helps you to repair your model and makes it solid.
3. Solid Intersection Check section that shows you all the intersection between solids.
4. Solid Weight section that shows you the weight of the model and every singe component.
On the video you can see how quick you can make this model to be composed by 29 solid entities.
Just try to do it manually and you will see how much time the SuSolid plugin can save you.
You don't need to inspect the mistakes closely, just follow the edge colors and select the appropriate tool for that mistake.
Mostly the best tool selection order is like on the mistakes counter (orange,red,green,yellow).
Next,you can find the intersection mistakes,that can be very expensive if you are designing for production.
And finally you can predict the weight of the product in the designing stage.
skp2osm lets you use OpenStreetMap in SketchUp.

Motivation
Create 2D outline of a building using 1-2 photos. This is to be a useful tool for areas where high resolution satellite imagery is not available.

Plugin to use OSM in the SketchUp editor | |
- Import of OSM files to SketchUp
- Import of GPS tracks in NMEA and GPX formats to SketchUp
- Export from SketchUp to OSM file
Prerequisites
- You should know how to do 3D modelling in SketchUp. You should know how to reconstruct 3D buildings from photos using SketchUp's Photo Matching tool
- The photos used for 2D outline reconstruction should not be cropped!

Installation
Download the plugin from here and unpack to Program FilesGoogleGoogle SketchUp 8Plugins
On mac the folder is: /Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/Plugins
Usage
- Reconstruct 2D outline of a building using Photo Matching tool. The outline should be parallel to XY plane otherwise it will not be exported to OSM file.
- Prepare OSM files and GPS tracks to be imported to SketchUp. Their extent should be quite small.
- File -> Import... to import the files to SketchUp.
- Place the reconstructed 2D outline to an appropriate location inside OSM ways and/or GPS tracks using Tape Measure, Move, Scale and Rotate tools
- Export the 2D outline to OSM file: File -> Export to OpenStreetMap file... The outline will be exported with the tags building=yes and source=skp2osm
- Open the just exported OSM file in JOSM for final editing and sending to the OSM database.
Limitations
- Non-latin characters in the path to imported and exported files are not supported
- Export of grouped objects is not supported. If you group objects in SketchUp, remove grouping before exporting to OpenStreetMap file.
