What is SketchUp?
It allows participants to visualize spaces in three dimensions It enables you to draw using a familiar pencil and paper paradigm in a software context. Video Clip

A question I have is
Getting Started
Start with a clear idea of what you want to accomplish It's best to start with the big picture and then fill in the details Start drawing an outline of your floor plan on paper, drawing it on paper will provide you with a point of reference when you start sketching it digitally. Each 1/4" inch box can represent 1 square foot. Gather & fill in measurements of your house. The measurements to consider are
the outside and inside dimensions, the thickness of outer and inner walls the height of each level. Generally speaking, outer walls are usually thicker than inner walls height of each floor is usually over seven feet. doors are 30-32 wide & tall 80
Floor Plan
To start, you'll go to the Menu bar, and select Camera --> Standard --> Top. This will show you an overhead, or bird's eye view, of the ground. Next, go back to Camera, and select Parallel Projection from the drop down menu.
Inner Walls
First make sure that all the lines are connected and closed. The lines will transform from a thicker line to a thinner line once closed. Now, select all the lines of the outer walls. Click on the Offset tool (or F on your keyboard), and create an identical inner wall inside of your outer wall. Type in the exact measurement of your inner wall offset in the VCB. Outer walls are generally no thicker than 12 inches.
Individual Rooms
Create walls with the Line tool (NOT the offset tool), being careful to snap from the inner wall and not the outer wall. Also, create inner walls for each room. You'll do this by having parallel lines several inches apart. A room's walls will be thinner than outside walls, but no thinner than four inches. This is necessary if you want to create a realistic rendering and if you plan on resurrecting walls. In order to push/pull, you'll need a face, not a line. A face is an area between three or more lines.
Doors
You'll need a door or entry way for all of your rooms. Choose the rectangle tool and diagonally draw a rectangle starting from the lower left Type in the standard dimensions of an interior door (30,80) Use the Push/Pull tool and remove the wall
Windows
Choose the rectangle tool and draw a box diagonally from the floor. Use the push/pull tool and to create the empty window space Create another rectangle on the outside dimension of the window (fill in the space) Use the offset tool to create a frame Use the pencil to divide window into 4 or 6 panes (decorative) and offset each rectangle Use the paint bucket tool to put in the translucent fill See windows.wmv video
Furniture
Go to Window --> Components, and start moving your furniture in. You have a large furniture library at your disposal. Putting furniture in your house is a great idea because it provides scale (sometimes measurements can't be visualized) and interactivity. When utilizing components or the warehouse be sure to do it at the end of the project, because the files can be large and the graphic card/ internal RAM may not support the file size of your project.
