In this video, we’re going to create a floor plan in Layout for our apartment model using SketchUp 2018’s new section tools. This includes using different fills for exterior and interior walls (unfortunately, SketchUp 2018 still can’t do hatching in the walls, but the fills are nice). In addition, we’ll have different lineweights for the walls.

Hi, I'm Justin Geis, and I'm the founder of The SketchUp Essentials. I started using SketchUp as part of my work as a general contractor in 2008. I quickly realized the power of the software and started using it for personal projects. I started The SketchUp Essentials as a place to share easy to follow SketchUp tutorials and tips to help everyone harness the power of 3D Modeling in their lives. When not working with SketchUp, I enjoy playing soccer and spending time with my wife and our two dogs.
