Due to its simplicity, flexibility and stability, SketchUp Pro ® is easily applicable at any stage of the project, regardless of the size of the project. The most intuitive architectural and interior modeling online program for drawing, visualizing and documenting your ideas
What tools are included in the SketchUp Pro subscription?
PreDesign
This tool provides designers with all the necessary information, both in terms of measurement and design, thus ensuring an orderly and correct start of the design. Use climate, geology and other analyzes with the PreDesign tool and your pre-project proposals will become more attractive and accurate in just a few minutes!
Unlimited libraries of models and additional tools
Drawing tools
The method of drawing and modeling in SketchUp PRO software is based on the principle of intuitiveness. Design, draw and model freely and independently of your competences. SketchUp working environment icons will allow you to quickly find the necessary tool and use it intuitively. By freehand drawing or drawing, leading, stretching or otherwise influencing the geometry. Since the recognizability of the program’s working environment is based on the X, Y and Z axes, in this way, when drawing and modeling in SketchUp, you will always do everything accurately and neatly, without deviations or possible errors. The vector / spatial understanding of the program’s modeling will help you choose the right direction or the desired geometry, so don’t wait, start today!
Extruding/retracting 3D surfaces and other geometry influences
Once you’ve created the geometry or plane you want, push, pull, or otherwise influence its order with these support tools without any difficulty. Cross planes, create unique shapes by mixing solid and hollow geometric shapes.
Sun direction / chiaroscuro / shading
With the click of a button, you can activate the shading function in the SketchUp Pro work environment. Depending on your location, year and time of day, SketchUp will accurately generate the drop shadow with the option to export the source data. By dragging the slider of the tool, you can live monitor the influence of the shadow on your project.
Browse your projects freely anywhere in the world
Cuts / Tiles
With SketchUp Pro, you can cut, divide or otherwise analyze, inspect your model with Section Cut, Flip and other tools that allow you to get to the necessary details or intersections without destroying the overall geometry.
Designing drawings with "Layout"
Preparing drawings or presentations has never been so easy! With the LayOut application, you can quickly and easily prepare drawings for printing. Ability to add annotated descriptions, indexes, and other specific guidelines before presenting to clients/clients or instructors.
Accurate geolocation with existing landscape
Having the coordinates or the exact address of the planned plot for the project, you will have the opportunity to insert the area where you plan to design into the SketchUp working environment without additional steps. Taking into account the terrain and other geometric factors, the program intuitively displays 3D earth surfaces.
Dynamic components
Add various information to your components, such as different colors and sizes or rotation direction. Then you can change the properties of your component with one click.
Error detection/reporting
Generate report messages that appear in your SketchUp model. Identify objects, materials or colors for the actual design. Clean up your workspace with just a few clicks, reducing the weight of your project and its scan resources.
Quick shape sharing, copying and other variations.
Create 1 volume from two or more volumes. Add them together, subtract them or split them. There are several options to create unique volumes that you can’t create with standard modeling tools!
Pre-project proposals would not be complete without these tools
BIM
BIM Classifier: Map standard IFC BIM object types to geometry (eg walls, floor slabs, roofs, etc.) to improve compatibility with other BIM tools. IFC Export: Export an IFC (Industrial Foundation Classes) file of your model, including geometry and valuable metadata, for use in other BIM applications. IFC Import: Ability to import IFC files from other BIM programs.
Animation / Creating scenes
You can present your model in videos. Select all the images you want and create “scenes” out of them. In this way, generate the cameras to fly smoothly from one image to another. Export it as .mov or .avi and you can watch it on any computer!
Compatibility with photo
With PhotoMatch, you can easily match a photo to SketchUp’s coordinate system. The PhotoMatch function instantly calculates the correct camera position and the correct viewing angle. For both outdoor and indoor work, the perfect helper to restore the former geometry point-to-point.
Styles and presentations
Create your project preview in a professional, attractive and artistic way. Generate styles, change colors, sky and other environmental factors influencing the presentation.

F.A.Q
Can I try a SketchUp subscription before I buy it?
Yes indeed – download the latest version HERE and log in with your Trimble ID (TID) account to start your 7-day trial period. Remember, each person can only create one Trimble account.
Can I use the program on multiple computers at the same time after purchasing a SketchUp subscription?
A SketchUp subscription is tied to a specific user’s Trimble ID account, which allows you to activate the subscription on two computers at the same time. V-ray rendering would only work on one computer at a time.
Is it possible to upgrade my SketchUp Pro subscription to Studio?
An active SketchUp Pro subscription can be upgraded to Studio by paying the difference in price. You would have to pay extra only for the remaining days of the subscription, proportionally.
Can I have multiple Trimble accounts active on one computer?
Only one Trimble account can be active per computer. Changing computer users will require changing Trimble accounts. Individual profiles can be created in the 3D Warehouse environment independently of Trimble.
Do I need an internet connection to use my SketchUp subscription?
When you first activate your SketchUp subscription, you must have an Internet connection. Further, in order not to deactivate the account on a specific device, it is necessary to connect to the Internet once a month.
Will I still be able to access my SketcUp models after my subscription ends?
After the subscription ends, the editing features and services associated with it will no longer be available, but the models will be available with the free version of SketchUp Free.
What happens to all SketchUp plugins when my subscription ends?
As plugins are not available in the Free version of SketchUp, you will only be able to continue using them after you renew your subscription. Add-ons will remain in your paid subscription.
What happens to LayOut documents after the subscription expires?
LayOut will not work without an active subscription and the user will not be able to open or edit their LayOut documents. The user should remember to save them in time in older versions or in PDF format.
After my subscription ends, will I still be able to access my data from Trimble Connect?
At the end of the subscription, the Trimble Connect account will return to free mode, allowing the user to continue to use the 10 GB of allocated cloud space. Any data above the 10GB limit will be available in read-only format.
Can I transfer my SketchUp subscription to another Trimble user account?
Only in cases where the employee terminates the employment relationship, the account associated with him can be transferred to another account. To do this, please contact us.
