  1. my senior designer uses sketchup hence my need to import his models>
    I have sketchup 16 and vectorworks 14 do you have any more recent tutorials?
    i am not able to import, i set model in plan view and parallel projection before import but nothing imports
    tks

    1. Do you mean Vectorworks 2014? I will have to check, but it might be that your designer needs to save the sketchup files as an older version, or maybe if you upgraded…

  2. i saved to sketchup v7 as you suggested, it worked
    thank you for both solution and very prompt response
