latestworldtechnology/ Sketchup Download of the day Sketchup is a free design program that is perfect if you want to work on ARCHITECTURAL DESIGNS with none of the hassle.Working with design applications can be a complicated & burden some task but not when it comes to Sketchup.This free software allows you to create designs for architecture,mechanics,video games & much more while remaining intuitive & simple to use.The softwares creators say they aimed to recreate the freedom of working with a pen & paper in a computer design package & it comes loaded with tools for drawing,modifying,rotating,scaling & moving geometry.Whether you want to create a new home or design your dream car Sketchup has the tools to get you on your way. SketchUp starts you off with templates based on units of measurement & type of drawing that you did like to create.It then places you in a 3D space with reference axes & a simplified set of tools that let you draw lines,arcs,rectangles & ovals filling them with various textures and connecting them via snappable end points.Fun things like the Push or Pull tool let you take a 2D image and extrude it though as an experienced 3D ANIMATOR.I did likely have been more comfortable if it had just been called an extrusion tool as well as many of the other tools having some what cutesy names.You can also create offsets of your shapes,rotate them,change camera angles & more. SketchUp release it is the whole that is greater than the sum of its parts.Whilst we dont see huge performance leaps within SketchUp itself we do see some major rewrite of the core to introduce new possibilities.But the most standout elements are the revised toolbars with nested tools shadow improvements & the migration to Ruby 2.0.From a developers perspective SketchUp 2014 has opened up its innards to make even more possible.That is only good news for end users.Along with the core changes & new API methods we get new exporters,UI improvements new tools & a much better 3D Warehouse with larger file uploads.LayOut is turning in to more of a beast with each release.Performance enhancements are eeked out new tools introduced & tighter integration with SketchUp features all playing a role to make the drafting & presentation element second to none.Overall SketchUp 2014 is solid.New features improvements & lots of potential to be extended in the future.
