G = Turns selected model space geometry into a component.

Double Click On Component = enters component edit mode.

Triple Click = when triple clicking a piece of model space geometry it selects everything in model space that is connected to that item.

D = dimension (this is a custom keyboard shortcut I set and is not included by default).

Ctrl = adds a copy command to the move and rotate commands.

Below are some of the shortcuts I most commonly use: Here’s a better package to add.įor a complete list of SketchUp 8 shortcuts click here for windows and click here for mac. SketchUp comes with a few wood textures but they aren’t that great to be honest.

I do not have a Mac computer so I have not tested the Mac install file to verify that it works but several people have reported back to me that this install file does indeed work. These top two links will download the SketchUp 8 windows version I use and the bottom link is for the Mac version. As far as I know it is allowed to be used for commercial use as well.

It does everything I need it to do so I don’t see a need to upgrade to the newer versions. I’ve been using the old FREE version of SketchUp 8 for a long time.

The objective of this page is to have all of my SketchUp instructional videos and project design videos in one location that I can continue to update as I create new videos. If I’ve been annoyed by it I’m sure plenty of people out there have as well. While it does benefit this website greater by having each video on a unique page I’ve personally found it annoying to have to go back and forth looking for a specific video. Being able to work out dimensions and update design options before entering the shop is a great way to increase efficiency and reduce material waste. In any case, it’s definitely “operator error” in not remembering that I had made that change “temporarily”.SketchUp is a 3d modeling program that I use to design the vast majority of my projects. Then when the release version of v18 came out and I installed it, those “temporary” shortcuts from the release version of v17 were automatically migrated to v18 and showed up when I started using the non-Beta version.Īt least, I think that’s how it happened. Then I spent some months where I was doing all my SU on the v18 beta, so of course that was a parallel, vanilla installation and didn’t have those shortcut changes. I finished my experiment, but I forgot to put things back. I had been working on something where I had been trying to do a kind of free-form follow-me, moving a surface with push/pull without a path, and I had “temporarily” changed the two tools I was using alternately, Rotate and Push/pull, to be under F2 and F1. Then, in a classic case of “Where’s my … HERE it is!”, after I stopped wrestling with it, and maybe after asking for help, the answer came to me while lying in bed: Greetings for now, hope it is useful…Jakob.

One good idea, is, to “Swap” the “Z” to: “Zoom Extents”…īrings you “out”, If you get: “Lost” In Model'… I even made a “keyboard” in Excel…to “See” where stuff is.(3D memory).

My example: “W” is “Wipe” for hide(wipe) rest of model… (toggle)Īnd “Alt + W” is Hide(wipe) similar… (toggle)ġ sorted by Name: (what did I choose for “Top View”)Īnd 1 is sorted by Shortcuts: (what does “F8” do?)īoth have the full path, as extra column: “Camera/Standard Views /Top” Remember shortcuts in “pictures or memes”… Put as many shortcuts, as possible, near the left side of keyboard My example: Thumb on “Ctrl” + index on “A” for “Select All”. Let 2 fingers of the left hand do the 2 key-button clicks: My example: “X” for: “X.Ray On / Off”…(a toggle function) Have most used shortcuts, as “One key”-single clicks…like Sketchup do Let the right “mouse”-hand do the creative stuff.

Nice to have the same shortcuts, when they demonstrate and you pause and try. I collect shortcuts… from people I follow on You Tube…“Sketchup School” for example. Meme: G for: Group as component… Alt+G is for: Group as group. From Sketchup: “G” is “Make component” ( in right click menu)
