LayOut

LayOut is SketchUp's companion application for creating professional 2D presentations from 3D SketchUp models. It allows architects, designers, and engineers to produce construction documents, presentations, and technical drawings by inserting SketchUp viewports into layouts with dimensions, annotations, text, and title blocks. LayOut bridges the gap between 3D modeling and traditional 2D documentation workflows, enabling users to maintain live connections to their SketchUp models so that changes automatically update in their presentations. The application is essential for professionals who need to create permit drawings, construction documents, client presentations, and other formal deliverables from their 3D designs.
