Click NEXT and TRACE (draw a select box round the symbol on the screen).Ĭlick IMPORT 3D SYMBOL and navigate to the model file that you downloaded. Sometimes you may want to link the 3D to a specific layout that you have on the screen, and if you can, it's probably better for you, than the one that Softplan will GENERATE later, in which case, choose the YES radio button. Is the plan view symbol you want to add to the library on screen? Choose the NO radio button. Now click the WIZARD button, to Open the Symbol Configure Wizard and give your Symbol a name.

(it helps if you can find these things again). Go to FILE > SYSTEM OPTIONS > SYSTEM LIBRARY. In Softplan open a new project and open the 3D tab. I normally file all my Sketchup downloads in a folder called "Sketchup Downloads" that way I don't have to search all over for them for them. For this example I'm using a Kindred KSDCLU9 sink. Make your own mind up about these.įirst of all, go to Sketchup's 3D Warehouse, and download any object that you wish. Some steps - like personal preferences of where to file objects - are obviously optional.

NOTE: You don't need to have Sketchup installed for Softplan to work with Sketchup objects.
