Using the Mouse in SketchUp Next: Working in 3D SketchUp can work with both 3-b

Using the Mouse in SketchUp Next: Working in 3D SketchUp can work with both 3-button and 1 button (commonly found on Mac computers) mice. A 3-button mouse is preferred as it will greatly increase your efficiency with SketchUp. You must learn different mouse operations before you can begin drawing in SketchUp. Using a 3-Button Mouse A three-button mouse consists of a left mouse button, a middle-mouse button (also called the scroll wheel) and a right-mouse button. The following is an overview of the different mouse operations commonly performed in SketchUp with a three-button mouse: • Click - A click refers to the user quickly pressing the releasing the left-mouse button. • Click and hold - A click and hold refers to the user pressing and holding down the left-mouse button. • Click, hold, drag - A click, hold, drag operation refers to the user pressing and holding down the left-mouse button and then moving the cursor. • Middle click, hold, drag - A middle click, hold, drag operation refers to the user pressing and holding down the middle-mouse button and them moving the cursor. • Scroll - A scroll refers to a user spinning the middle mouse wheel. • Context-click - A context-click refers to pressing and holding the right-mouse button. Context-clicks are usually used to display context menus. Context menus are menus whose contents vary depending on the context in which they are invoked (usually on one or more entities in the drawing area or within a component, such as a dialog box). The following image shows a context menu for a Face entity. Using a 1-Button Mouse The following is an overview of the different mouse operations commonly performed in SketchUp with a one-button mouse: • Click - A click refers to the user quickly pressing the releasing the mouse button. • Click and hold - A click and hold refers to the user pressing and holding down the mouse button. • Click, hold, drag - A click, hold, drag operation refers to the user pressing and holding down the mouse button and then moving the cursor. • Scroll - A scroll refers to a user spinning the mouse ball (found on some Mac computers). • Context-click - A context-click refers to pressing and holding the control key while simultanously pressing clicking the mouse button. Context-clicks are usually used to display context menus. Context menus are menus whose contents vary depending on the context in which they are invoked (usually on one or more entities in the drawing area or within a component, such as a dialog box).. Creating models in SketchUp primarily consists of two operations: • Viewing models in 3D space using the camera tools (rotate, zoom in, zoom, out, and pan). • Creating 2D faces or shapes and transforming 2D faces, using the Push/Pull Tool, into a 3D geometry. Viewing a Model in 3D Space Next: Creating Geometry with the Push/Pull Tool SketchUp implements the concept of a camera to represent your point of view of the model. Simply, you (the user) are treated as though you were a camera looking at your model as you work. There are several tools in SketchUp for viewing your model in 3D space. The most commonly used camera tools are the Orbit tool, Pan tool, Zoom tool, and Zoom extents tool. Preparing to Use the Viewing Tools You must have a model in the drawing area before we can practice viewing. By default, SketchUp contains a model of a person at the origin of the axes. You can use that model for the purposes of these exercises. Or, follow these steps to place one of SketchUp's pre-built models into the drawing area: 1. Click on Window > Components. The Component Browser is displayed. 2. Click on the 'Collections and Searches' drop-down list identified by a downward arrow ( ). 3. Click on the Architecture item. Architectural collections are listed. 4. Click on one of the collections, such as "Furniture." The 3D Warehouse appears. 5. Click on one of the collections, such as "Beds." Several components appear. 6. Click on one of the pre-built architectural models, such as a "Twin size bunk bed." The Twin size bunk bed page appears. 7. Click on the Download Model button. The Load into Model? dialog box appears. 8. Click on the Yes button. The model appears in SketchUp attached to the Select tool. 9. Click anywhere in the drawing area to place the model. The model will be positioned in the drawing area. Using the Orbit Tool Use the Orbit Tool to rotate the camera about the model and is often used while drawing to quickly change your view in between drawing operations. Activate the Orbit Tool from either the Camera Toolbar or the Camera menu. To orbit your model: 1. Click on the Orbit Tool ( ) in the toolbar. The cursor changes to two interconnected perpendicular ovals (( ). 2. Click anywhere in the drawing area. 3. Move your cursor in any direction to rotate around the center of the drawing area. Using the Orbit Tool (3-Button Mouse) A 3-button mouse allows you to orbit a model without exiting the current drawing tool, speeding up your drawing. To orbit with a 3-button mouse: 1. Click on the Pencil Tool ( ) in the toolbar. The cursor changes to a pencil ( ). 2. Click and hold the middle-mouse button. The cursor changes to the Orbit Tool cursor ( ). 3. Move your cursor in any direction to rotate around the center of the drawing area (continue to keep your finger pressed on the middle mouse button). 4. Release the middle-mouse button to return to the Pencil Tool ( ). The cursor changes back to a pencil ( ). Using the Pan Tool Use the Pan Tool to move the camera (your view) vertically and horizontally. Activate the Pan Tool from either the Camera Toolbar or the Camera menu. To pan using the Pan Tool: 1. Click on the Pan Tool ( ). The cursor changes to a hand ( ). 2. Click anywhere in the drawing area. 3. Move the cursor in any direction to pan. Using the Pan Tool (3-Button Mouse) A 3-button mouse allows you to pan your view without exiting the current drawing tool, speeding up your drawing. To orbit with a 3-button mouse: 1. Click on the Pencil Tool ( ) in the toolbar. The cursor changes to a pencil ( ). 2. Press and hold the Shift key. 3. Press and hold the middle-mouse button. The cursor changes to the Pan Tool cursor ( ). 4. (optionally) Press and hold the left mouse button while pressing and holding the middle mouse button (scroll wheel) to activate the Pan Tool. Using the Zoom Tool Use the Zoom Tool to move the camera (your view) in or out. Activate the Zoom Tool from either the Camera Toolbar or the Camera menu. 1. Click on the Zoom Tool ( ) in the toolbar. The cursor changes to a magnifying glass ( ). 2. Click and hold anywhere in the drawing area. 3. Drag the cursor up to zoom in (closer to the model) and down to zoom out (farther from the model). Using the Zoom Tool (3-Button Mouse) A 3-button mouse allows you to zoom in or out without exiting the current drawing tool, speeding up your drawing. To zoom with a 3-button mouse: 1. Click on the Pencil Tool ( ) in the toolbar. The cursor changes to a pencil ( ). 2. Roll the scroll wheel (middle-mouse button) forward to zoom in on your model. 3. Roll the scroll wheel (middle-mouse button) back to zoom out from your model. Using the Zoom Extents Tool Use the Zoom Extents Tool to zoom your view to a distance where the whole model is visible and centered in the drawing area. Activate the Zoom Extents Tool from either the Camera Toolbar or the Camera menu. The Zoom Extents Tool is often used when your model goes off screen or you find yourself confused about the view of your model. Click on the Zoom Extents Tool ( ) in the toolbar. Your model is centered in the drawing area. Creating Geometry with the Push/Pull Tool Next: Drawing Shapes with the Circle, Arc, and Rectangle Tools Use the Push/Pull Tool to push and pull faces to add volume to or subtract volume from your models. You can use push/pull to create volume out of any face type, including circular, rectangular, and abstract faces. Activate the Push/Pull Tool from either the Toolbar or the Tools menu. Preparing to Use the Push/Pull Tool Start a new file before continuing with the next exercise. To start a new file: 1. Select File > New. A dialog box is displayed asking if you want to save your changes. 2. Click on the No button. A new, blank, drawing area appears. 3. Click on the Rectangle Tool ( ). The cursor changes to a pencil with uploads/Geographie/ sketch-up-guide.pdf
