hobbies and interests drawing and sketchingHow do you make an oval shape in Sketchup?
To draw an ellipse or oval, follow these steps:
- Draw a circle with the Circle tool.
- Select the Scale tool ( ).
- Click the circle.
- Click one of the middle grips (not one of the cornergrips)andmove the mouse to pull the circle into an ellipse,asshownhere.
- Click again when you're done scaling the circle.
Considering this, how do I resize an object in Sketchup?
Sketchup Resize Components
- To scale only one instance of a component,selectthecomponent.
- To scale all instances of a component in your model,doubleclickthe component and then select an entity withinthatcomponent.
- To resize an object and distort some of its dimensions,usetheScale tool.
- Draw a straight, horizontal line using a ruler.
- Make a shorter vertical line coming down from one endofthefirst line.
- Draw a horizontal line coming off the bottom end oftheverticalline.
- Draw a vertical line between the ends of thetwohorizontallines.
- Color in your rectangle to make it pop.
Moreover, how do you make a torus in Sketchup?
Steps
- Create a circle, then select the surface and delete it.
- Create another circle set on the red axis.
- Move the smaller circle to the outline of thebiggercircle.
- Using the "Follow Me Tool". drag the surface ofthesmallercircle around the outline of the bigger circle.
- Now you already have a "Torus"
For example, here is one way toconstructarectangle:
- Choose arbitrary points A and B in the plane anddrawsegmentAB.
- Raise a perpendicular m to AB at A.
- Raise a perpendicular n to AB at B.
- Choose an arbitrary point C on line n.
- Drop a perpendicular from point C to line m.
- Then quadrilateral ABCD is a rectangle.
