All language subtitles for 613241-43 - Axis - The definitive SKETCHUP course. From beginner to expert.en-US

Hello guys and welcome to

this new class in where
we're going to see

the axis tool will find this
tool here in this position.

It is called axis.

And the description says move

or reorient the drawing axis.

It is talking about
this general axis,

the blue one, the green one,

and the red one, which,

as we already know,

are helping us all the time,

draw in a more easy
way because we can

block parallels,
use inspirations.

One, e.g. in this drawing,

we have a kind of a square,

a square with a building.

Let's say that this
Q is a kind of

building in case that
we want to draw e.g.

let's say a kind
of lethal garden.

And its geometry is all
the time orthogonal to

the different lines that
we have in our drawing.

We won't need change anything.

We will draw us.

We usually do this little garden

or this little swimming pool.

It could be whatever
will be drawn easily.

But imagine that we don't
want this kind of geometry.

But another one more complex
in where we have angles,

inclined lines or
something like that.

Imagine e.g. that this is
our angle are inclined line.

Then we want to draw
another circle or

a line to this previous line.

Then we can use this
information in this pink color,

which is telling us
that we are drawing

a perpendicular line
to the previous eds.

We can use this information,

but we can't use

the arrow keys or whatever
to block our axis.

We can do it this way,

but it's not that easy.

If I want to close
this, take e.g.

the iterations are
not working and I

cannot block anything
using the arrow keys.

I should draw this line
longer than escape,

and then another line,
then the eraser.

And here we have our sake,

maybe for just one CEP,

we don't need to change the
position of the general axis.

But if we are going to draw

many different shapes
using these precise angle,

then I strongly recommend
you to use this access to.

We should hit the tool
one click and release,

then the tool is
loaded and asking

us for the first
point, let's say e.g.

here we click and release,

and then we have to choose
the second point and

the position of that red
axis and green axis.

Let's say here, second click,

then I move the mouse again,

and it's time for setting these
green axis and blue axis.

The blue axis has to
be always pointing up.

So third, click here,

and the new position
of this general axis

has been set successfully.

The good thing about this
is that now if we want to

draw more shapes with
these precise angle,

as I told you before.

Now, it's super-easy because

we'll be able to draw
again parallels,

block the axis using

the arrow keys or holding
down the Shift key,

as we always used to do
once we're happy with

the result and we want to

reset the position
of the general axis.

We better go over any of
the general axis, e.g.

in this case, I will do
it over this blue axis.

Right bottom, reset, just here,

one good piece of information,

and I'll go one step back.

Because when you hover
over any of the axis,

if you want the reset option to

appear when you click the
right button, like now,

you will need to click
the right button in

a position in where you don't

have the geometry behind you.

I mean, if e.g. I.

Hover over this
position right button,

then a sketch up thus and
understand what we want to do.

And he thinks that
we are trying to

modify that phase
of the square root.

So scape and will need
again to go over any of

the axis in a
position in where we

don't have the geometry
behind that axis, e.g.

here, right button reset.

As you can see, these
two is easy and simple.

We just have to be focused on

when is the correct
time for using it.

I hope you liked the class.

And in the next episode,

we'll go through this
section plane tool.

This tool, you have to know
that it has its own set bar.

It is this one.

So it will be a little
bit more complicated.
