Our friends over at Wiley Publishing have just released the popular Google SketchUp For Dummies book in a new edition that covers SketchUp 7 - both free and Pro! You can find the book online and at brick-and-mortar booksellers. The new edition is fully updated and includes:
- a brand new section on the Sandbox tools
- a brand new section on modeling organic shapes with the Scale, Push/Pull, and Follow Me tools
- a brand new section on Dynamic Components, including how to use them and how to create them
- coverage of the new photomodeling tools
- a revised chapter on LayOut 2
I bought the previous SketchUp for Dummies book and found it very informative; it has saved me a lot of time by showing me what not to do as well as what I should do to accomplish my modeling goals. It looks like I'll have to pick this edition up as well.
ReplyDeleteI do wish these weren't "Dummies" books, though. After all, I'd like to think I'm no dummy. I use SketchUp!

ReplyDeleteIn this book, the author indicated that he put "color images: color versions of some of the images in this book online at www.dummies.com/go/sketchup7fd",
ReplyDeleteI browsed the entire website but found none "color images" available!
and in the chapters, all the times readers are referred to 'Color Plate 1, See Color Plate 2-4, 2-5, 6, etc.' all are just not there in the website!!!
