Hey, guys.

Welcome back.

Now, before we start with the workshop, I'm going to show you the software and the files that you

need to work with in this course.

So the main software, of course, is scheduled for 2022, which is the latest version of SketchUp.

So you can simply open this link, sign in and then follow the step by step process to download the

setup and install the file to your computer.

You can select either the Windows version if you're using a desktop computer, or you can select a Mac

if using a MacBook Pro.

Now, once you've downloaded and installed sketch up, you can click on the second link, which is really

a faithful sketch up and you get a 30 day trial for good faith.

Same goes with ketchup as well.

And you can follow the step by step process again, you'll have to sign in, download the setup and

then install it step by step.

It's a fairly simple process.

And finally, we have flex tools as well, which is a bonus plugin that I would be using in this course.

It helps in creating those and windows super-fast, and I use it a lot in my projects because it helps

me save a lot of time in the long run.

So I will be showing you how to use flex tools and leverage all these tools to modify store in schedule.

You can also go ahead and join our Facebook Community Group, which has over 4000 members, and you

can feel free to ask questions.

In fact, share your work and more.

In case you're not on Facebook, you can also join LinkedIn or Discord Channel two.

Now I'll give you a brief on our exercise files in.

We have a file for each of the lessons in this course, and we have a start and finish by, it's a start

is basically what happens at the start of the video and finishes.

What is the result from finishing that video so you can start from any part of the course?

But ideally, I would suggest that you start from the start and work your way towards the end.

Well, it's on knowing what to show you the various shortcuts that I use in sketch up 2022 so that you

can follow this course quite easily.

So I'm going to open sketch up through 2022 and I'm going to select architectural millimeters, which

are the units that we're going to use for this workshop.

You can also select architectural inches if you're more comfortable with the inches units.

So let's select architectural mm.

Now this is how my sketch up interface looks, and these are the plug ins that I've just installed into

sketch up, which is the BD plugin and also the Flex tools plug in.

If you don't find these plugins just going to view toolbars, then you find flex tools here.

And if you scroll to the bottom, you'll find the video toolbars as well.

And in case you're wondering how to install flex tools, just go to extension extension manager, click

on install extension and then simply install the R.B.G file, which you downloaded from their website.

All right, so the new interface, we can see that we have a new all with that.

So this is Niraj, who works at SketchUp, and now I'm going to quickly show you the various shortcuts

that they use.

So let me just make some groups quickly.

LED to the main shotguns that they used his hate, so if I select this object, I can preserve due to

hate.

So if your function keys are not working, you can also assign control plus one to hate and then control

best to run hide and control plus to one night.

So I use F-2 to hide EF3 Tornado and if I select all and hide and then press effort it night, all the

objects in the scene.

The other shotgun, which I use, is to quickly go to the plan, you suppress all W to switch between

perspective and pilot projection.

And then I go press all day to go to the planned you and I all f to go to the front of you.

So this way I can model foster and sketch up.

Another cool shortcut that I use is that if I enter this group and press J.

You can toggle visibility.

There's also this will be useful because sometimes you may want to hide the rest of the models and then

start modelling and sketch up.

And one last article, which I will show you is, of course, X-ray.

So if I press way, it switches on X-ray mode and the said help me move stuff more accurately and sketch

up as well.

And then, of course, the main shortcut, which I use a lot as groups.

So if I make a rectangle, you know and throw selecting the face and edges and then right clicking and

clicking on my group, I just select the faces and edges and press on my keyboard to make a group.

It is actually for competence, but I have it to make groups.

Now this is just my personal preference.

You can choose your own preference, shortcut preferences and if you want a change, you can change

the shortcuts.

Just go to windows.

Click on preference.

Select Shortcuts.

And then you can start assigning these shortcuts.

So the first one is hide.

So you can see that afterwards, we are saying just simply click here.

Press F2 or control one.

So let me just assume control one plus one.

And then I need hard is control to.

And I need.

Lastest control three.

And then, of course, we have high dress to the model, so you can say in jail and also make sure,

but it's OK so that it seems the other two shotguns which are left is my group.

So let's go to group here.

The last one is make group, they're Angie.

And then we have X-ray, so it's Daschle, and the next day she shows up here, which is why I'm not

given X because that is useful.

Another shortcut.

So these are the main shortcuts that you would want to use in SketchUp.

And then once you assign all of these, you can press, OK, now in the latest feature in SketchUp,

there's a new feature called Search for Tools.

So if I click here, you can search for any tool that you use in your setup interface, for example,

if you search for light.

You can see that you can also search for the plug in tools within the search for each other's pretty

handy in case you're not using certain tools, you can simply search for them by clicking on this icon

you or you can alter play shifters, which is the shortcut for this search tool feature and then search

for your favorite shortcut.

Now, if you'd like to learn more about the latest tools in Sketch Out 2022, you can check the free

Now, this is all that we need to tackle this workshop.

So let's jump into the next we do import art altogether drawing.

Make the walls clear, the doors and windows then place in our furniture.

And finally cleared up 3D planned and.

So it's you guys next video shows.
