Trimble SketchUp Studio 2023

SketchUp Studio 2023 Release

SketchUp 2023 includes significant updates to Studio (common installer + Revit Importer) and minor feature improvements to SketchUp Pro desktop and LayOut.

Highlights:

• The Revit Importer will enable SketchUp users to collaborate more efficiently with project stakeholders who use Revit to create deliverables
   
• The Revit Importer preserves model structures between both tools. Revit families and categories translate to components and tags respectively in SketchUp, ensuring clear communication and smoother collaboration.
   
• By moving a Revit model back into the SketchUp 3D environment, designers can quickly iterate and develop details with tools for creativity.
   
• With SketchUp 2023, users no longer have to guess if the Flip Along command will reverse object in the desired direction. They can perform flip and mirroring actions confident that the results are as they intended, saving modeling time and reducing frequent undo’s and back-and-forth clicks.
   
• Improvements in LayOut allow users to manage inserted .dwg files in LayOut as references. Referencing a file in a LayOut document is a way for users to display information that was created in other applications. This includes information such as images, text files, or AutoCAD drawings (which are saved in the .dwg file format).

Beautiful designs, backed by data

Move designs forward with confidence
Quickly import, view, and model straight on point cloud data to ensure design accuracy.

Communicate your designs
From conceptual to photoreal, create compelling visual assets quickly and with ease.

Collaborate efficiently
Access, review, and annotate up-to-date models and drawings in a single, robust platform.

Accurately model in 3D

Increase workflow efficiency by importing, viewing and modeling directly on point cloud data from terrestrial scans, photogrammetry, lidar sensors, mobile mapping, and drone captures. Use Scan Essentials to precisely — and rapidly — ensure model accuracy no matter the size of your file. Finalize the 3D details and prep your project for the final build by creating 2D documentation from point cloud data directly in LayOut.

Generate high-quality visuals

From detailed high-rise buildings to interior floor plans, add realism into your projects using V-Ray®. With atmospheric effects, global illumination, natural lighting, real-life textures, and shading options, you will truly be able to showcase your project in the best light with just a few steps.

What is included with SketchUp Studio Subscription Annual Licence?

• Layout - a documentation tool which takes your 3D model to 2D space. The layOut helps you show your client or partner that you’ve captured what you have discussed, and move the project forward confidently. You can efficiently add 2D sections, views and dimensions to annotate your 3D model. This will help explain the intricate detail of one model and show real-world scale all on one page.
• Style Builder - this is a handy little program, you can create your sketchy edge style from lines you’ve drawn yourself, either on paper or digitally in an image-editing program.
• Trimble Scan Essentials - SketchUp is the most complete point cloud solution for modelling from scan data.
• V-Ray for SketchUp is a photorealistic, physically-based rendering solution that helps designers better visualise their models.
• Pre Design - a new tool from SketchUp designed to help you focus on the right concepts, avoid wasting design energy and help strengthen your narrative to get clients on board.
• SketchUp Viewer for Mobile - SketchUp Viewer enables you to store and share 3D models on your iOS or Android mobile device. SketchUp Viewer is a great way to share models with clients or have a portfolio of 3D models on hand when you're on the go.
• Trimble Connect for Business - Trimble Connect enables collaboration for engineering and construction projects. Accessible via Desktop, Mobile, or Web, Trimble Connect allows users to view, share, and access project information from anywhere, at anytime
• SketchUp Viewer for XR - The Viewer for VR enables you to engage colleagues and clients in experiential design review: a powerful new way to evaluate, coordinate, and communicate in Mixed Reality.
• SketchUp Viewer for AR - The Mobile app offers augmented reality (AR) viewing capabilities that enable you to view your 3D models within the context of your existing physical space. With AR, you can iterate faster on designs by experiencing your models in 3D, communicating your ideas more effectively, and wow both your clients and coworkers.
• SketchUp Web - This version of SketchUp runs in a web browser, You will find a simple interface where you can simply draw and create 3D models. Our goal is to enable you to create anything you can imagine in 3D.
• SketchUp Campus - is a unique, in-depth learning hub with SketchUp-approved courses, all created by our team members to make learning SketchUp convenient and simple. For those of you across the world, the courses and transcripts can be translated into over 100 languages.
