All language subtitles for 613241-56 - Tags 2 - The definitive SKETCHUP course. From beginner to expert.en-US

Hello people and welcome to

this new class in where
we're going to see

what is the current workflow
with tax in a sketch,

because SketchUp has its own way

for doing this and it
is not very logical.

I have to say e.g.

as I mentioned at the
end of the last episode,

here we have a complicated
situation with this cylinder.

It has a dashed line.

When if we check the kind
of line of this tack,

it is at a fault line.

It means that it has to
be a continuous line.

What is the reason there?

Well, the reason is
that this cylinder was

drawn beginning in
this untapped tag.

So all the geometry was
placed inside that tag.

Then we made a
selection like that

and we move all the
entities to the cylinder.

But we selected all the phases
and all the visible edges.

This is a cylinder,

so it has a lot of hidden
geometry, hidden edges.

If I go over view,

hidden geometry will see all
of these hidden geometry,

these lines which were
not selected and they

remained inside this
untapped layer,

which has this dashed line.

That is the reason.

So this explanation connects

with what I'm going
to explain now.

What is the best
workflow when we

are using the tax in a sketch?

So imagine that
my current layer,

Let's say that it is

this untapped layer as
it comes by default.

But when I am drawing and I
have organized these tasks

menu using different layers
as cube, cylinder, sphere.

Then I decided to draw something
inside this cube duck.

Then my logic could be to
change the current layer.

So one-click, hear,
one-click here.

Now the currently it is

cubed and then I
draw something, e.g.

this rectangle, then I want
to draw something else.

This time. I know
that this geometry,

I want to be inside
the cylinder duck,

then my logic could
be changed again,

my current layer, unselect
the cylinder duck.

So one-click, one-click
and I draw another entity.

This geometry I know is
placed inside this cylinder.

Let's repeat the process
with this sphere.

Duck, I change the
current layer.

Once the sphere, that
is the current layer,

I draw another rectangle.

Cool, but this is not

the correct way for using
the tax in this case.

Look that if I want to hide,

let's say this cube duck,

one click on the little eye.

Something strange happens here.

The line seems to
not be complete.

If I hide the cylinder dark,

it is more clear.

We don't have this EDS and

something again is
not complete here.

If I hide this fear,

that one click on here,

then this window pops up.

You cannot hide
the current duck.

Okay, so I will change
the current tag.

Let's say the current tag
is the tag tag again,

then I hide this sphere dark.

And again, this is missing.

Two big more clearer.

Let's hide this cube dark.

This is fear tab.

I'll select this
rectangle and I will

move it a little bit
along the green axis.

Then when I unhide the cube
and this fear that look,

what happened, that you imagery

was modify it because
of my movement.

So everything becomes a mess
and y is happening this,

what is the reason?

The reason is because
our logic says

that if we are using
different ducks,

it is like if our
geometry is isolated

inside those tags and cannot
be glue with other geometry,

that is our logic.

It's not the logic of a sketch.

For a SketchUp, ducks

don't work like that
under the symmetry,

can be blue even
when the geometry

is placed inside
different ducts.

So what is the good workflow
for drawing in a schizo?

Don't never change the current.

The current tag by default is

this untapped, dark and you
don't have to change that.

So if I repeat the same
drawing correctly,

I would start my drawing with

this untapped dark
as the current tag,

I will draw my first rectangle.

I will make a group.

If I want that geometry
to be isolated.

I mean, we don't want

that geometry to glue
with anything else.

I will draw my second rectangle.

I will make a groove again.

Then if I want this rectangle
to be in another layer,

I select the group and I
move it to my desire, duck,

I will repeat the same operation

with this, another entity.

I select it and I move it
to my desired new tag,

this time sitting there,

Let's do it for the last time.

I draw my geometry,

I make a group and I change
the tag this time sphere.

So now what is happening
is that the group,

the box is placed
in my cube duck,

but the interior of the
box, the fried geometry,

as we use to name it,

it is inside this untapped
dark all the time.

That is the reason
because we have

this does line on the edges.

If we wanted to change that,

we should go over here.

One-click default.

So this way I can hide,

for instance, this cube tag
and everything goes normal.

I can hide this cylinder
tag, everything goes normal.

I could hide the
cube and this fear.

Select this rectangle, move
it along the green axis.

And when I unhide
the previous DAX,

my drawing hasn't
changed at all.

It has sent became a mess here.

And I have all the
control of my entities.

So I give you a reminder,

don't change the current duck.

And when you draw,

make groups or components in
order to isolate geometry,

if you don't want that geometry

to glue with something else.

And then afterwards is
the correct moment for

moving the entities to

another layer in
case that you want.

I hope it is clear now,

in case that you have any doubt,

don't hesitate to ask me.

In the next episode,

we will see another tray.

This time, we'll see the tray
goal since this tray here.

So be ready and see you
in the next episode.
