From this exercise i learn that there more then add just simple feature to your sketch. But you can add things such as this and be able to do many kind of different feature to a simple house sketch

i learn from the first sketchup was that it was real easy to do. Also that it didnt take long to create because to me it not that hard to do a 3D sketch. i learn theres many types of feature you can add to a sketch

30 Facts
- 2d drawings are limited
- 3d is actually build like a realistic model
- simple paper sketches are thing that we are familiar with.
- simple drawing are shapes and you can pull them up in 3d models
- the boxs icon is to push up
- the rectangle is where you can make small or big rectangle
- the orbit is where you can turn your drawing around to look at it
- the hand is the pan so you can move things around
- the zoom is the
- when you use the orbit tool you arent moving or rotating the model
- but you just moving around the model
- so the model stay the same place and that you move around to view the different sides
- the zoom tool is found in the tool palette
- to use it you click on the tool and try zooming toward and away from the model
- you would have to hold the mouse button down and move your mouse forward and backward
- the pan tool is a hand shape icon
- the tool is used to panning the model back and forth across the screen
- you hold the mouse button down and move your mouse around
- the orbit, zoom, and the pan are all navigation tools
- you have to be able to move around in 3d space easily to use those tools
- the rectangle tool is a simply click with the mouse
- you can click somewhere in the sketchup and move away and click again
- its not a good idea to have rectangle crossing over each other
- when using the orbit to look around the rectangle its just a flat surface
- but often you can start by drawing flat shapes and then pull them up into 3d
- use the push/pull icon the make the rectangle look 3d
- the push/pull works on any flat surface, horizontal, or vertical
- sketchup in the tools will snap or infer to coners, edge and any other geometry
- you can use the navigation tools to look around the models
- go to the menu and and look for self paced to access more help
