All language subtitles for 613241-07 - Open different skp files at the same time - The definitive SKETCHUP course. From beginner to expert.en-US

Hello people and welcome
to this new class.

Inward, we're gonna see how to

open different SketchUp files at

the same time and copy

different elements from one file

to another in this process,

although it is very,

very simple, is at the same
time a little bit tricky.

So let's see how to
do it correctly.

This is a modern house.

They can from the
warehouse library.

And imagine that we want

to include more and
more elements, e.g.

let's say a car.

This looks like the
entrance and we

want them to add here a car.

The thing is that that
car is in another file.

So the first thing that we
want to do, open that file,

then the logic is step,

good way to go over file,

open, search for our file.

Here it is, The name is
car selected and open.

But look what is
going to happen.

Our car file is already open,

but then the previous file,

the modern house
file, is closed.

If I hold down Alt
key class tabulation,

then I can see all of
my windows already

opened and a half just
one SketchUp file,

open the car one.

So this is something which
can make us feel Gracie.

And the solution to
have both files open at

the same time is to
go over that folder.

Here, we need to open

the modern house file and

then open it from
here, two clicks.

The file is already open.

And if I hold down
Alt plus tabulation,

the car file is opened as well,

so I can go over
both files easily.

The thing now is that
if I want to copy

this car and paste it
in my modern house,

I have to select my car,

go over edit, copy,

then go over the other file,

the modern house
file. Go inside.

Here, say Edit, Paste.

I have to wait a little bit,

but here we have the car.

So as you can take in
order to copy one element

from SketchUp file to
another SketchUp file,

we first need to have both
files open at the same time.

Then we select that specific
element, Edit Copy.

We move over the other
file and edit paste.

I hope that this process is
totally clear now for you,

because in the next
future during the course,

we will have to use it
time to say goodbye now,

and I'll see you in
the next episode.
