SketchUpPro

SketchUp Pro is a 3D modeling software developed by Trimble. It is widely used in architectural design, interior design, landscape design, urban planning, game development, engineering manufacturing and other fields.

Software features

Intuitive and easy-to-use interface

The toolbar and menu are concisely designed and the operation logic is clear, making it suitable for beginners to get started quickly.

Supports drag-and-drop operation, users can complete modeling with simple clicks and drags.

Powerful modeling tools

Provides a wealth of drawing tools (lines, rectangles, circles, etc.) and 3D modeling functions (push-pull, rotation, scaling, etc.).

Supports component library and material library, users can quickly call preset models and materials.

Flexible scalability

Support plug-in extensions (such as V-Ray, Enscape and other rendering plug-ins) to enhance rendering and visualization effects.

Provides Ruby API interface, users can write custom scripts to extend functions.

Cross-platform compatibility

Supports Windows and macOS systems, allowing users to seamlessly switch between different devices.

Supports importing and exporting multiple file formats (such as DWG, DXF, 3DS, OBJ, etc.) to facilitate collaboration with other software.

Cloud collaboration

Integrate Trimble Connect cloud service to support team collaboration and file sharing.

Provides LayOut tool to export 3D models into professional drawings and presentations.

Software function

3D modeling

Supports rapid generation of 3D models from 2D graphics, such as stretching flat graphics into three-dimensional shapes through the "Push and Pull" tool.

Provides advanced modeling tools such as path following, soft edges, and offset.

Materials and Rendering

Built-in material editor supports custom materials and textures.

Integrated rendering engines (such as SketchUp native rendering or third-party plug-ins) can generate realistic light and shadow effects.

Animation and Presentation

It supports scene switching and animation production, and users can create model tours or construction process demonstrations.

Provides viewing angle management tools to facilitate setting display effects for different viewing angles.

Terrain and Landscape Design

Supports terrain modeling, users can import terrain data to generate real landforms.

Provides landscape elements such as vegetation, roads, and water bodies to quickly build environmental models.

Data Analysis and Simulation

Supports sunlight analysis and shadow simulation to help designers optimize building layout.

Can be combined with extension plug-ins for structural analysis or energy consumption simulation.
