Converting Sketchup models

TK

Free model libraries

Importing models

  • Switch to 3D View in the Storyboard toolbar.
  • Library > right click > Import Files > Select model
  • Drop the model from the Library panel into a Layer of the current Panel.

Orienting the model in Camera View

  • Manipulate the model using the Transform Tool.
  • Manipulate the camera with the Camera Tool.
    • Switch to Side View, Top View, or Stage View to view the cone of the camera.
    • Select the camera by clicking on its origin with the Camera Tool. This will display transformation handles (rotation and translation) for the camera.
  • Cannot view 3D model in 2D mode.

Drawing in 3D mode

In 3D Scene with Layer Alignment of a painted layer set to none, it's not possible to draw on the Layer in Camera View. If the Layer Alignment is face camera or pin to camera, then it's possible to draw directly in the Camera View.
