1001 bit Pro for Sketchup

This tool provides the following information between 2 points.

• Start point – coordinate of first pick point
• End point – coordinate of second pick point
• Distance in 3D space – real direct distance between 2 points
• Distance in XY plane – distance between 2 points projected to flat XY plane. This is useful for identifying plan length of various elements.
• Difference in X axis – different in x coordinates between 2 points
• Difference in Y axis – different in y coordinates between 2 points
• Difference in Z axis – different in z coordinates between 2 points, i.e. the difference in vertical level between 2 points.
• Bearing on plan – angle measured clockwise from North
• Angle from XY plane – this is the tilting or sloping angle between the points. In the example above, this is used to measure the slope of the gutter.

Point on face – setting out reference point : This tool places a construction point on a selected face by defining horizontal and vertical distances. It is intended to be used for creating setting out reference points, particularly on faces that is not vertical or horizontal.

Center point of arc and circles : This tool places a construction point at the center of an arc or a circle through picking 3 points along the arc of circle.

Divide – divide selected edge with different setting out options : The divide tool creates a series of construction points along the selected edge. There are different setting out options to place the construction points

Align selected entities : This tool allows for aligning any group or component instance by defining 3 basepoints and 3 target points. This is particularly useful for accurate placement of elements on non flat planes, for example placing a car on a slope, or placing a hatch opening onto a sloping roof surface.

Set current layer : This tool sets the layer of the selected entity as current layer. An input box is displayed. If the user enter a new layer name, the new layer is created (if not exist) and set as current layer.

Set layer of selected entities : This tool sets the layer of the selected entities (including grouped entities) to a single layer. This is particularly useful when different elements inside a group has been created on different layers. This tool can reorganize the layer of entities inside a group into a common layer.
