Plugins & Extensions
We are veteran users of SketchUp and have been drawing with the software since its release. After many years using a wide variety of extensions that are available for SketchUp Pro & Studio, we have come up with a group of plugins we consider essential for users in certain industries to extend functionality for particular purposes and needs.
Professional 3D Rendering Software for Architects & Designers.
Enscape works directly inside your CAD software, allowing you to create amazing photorealistic images and simulation videos from your 3D models with just a few clicks – no uploading to the cloud or exporting to a separate program.
Profile Builder 3
Lightspeed parametric modelling
Parametric Profiles: Say Good-bye to Follow-Me!
The core of Profile Builder is the ability to create smart extrusions (we call these ‘Profile Members’) using parametric profiles. A profile can be any shape and can even be a polyline.
Create smart mouldings, framing, piping, railings, roofing, walls, and foundations – the possibilities are endless!
Create and Save Custom Profiles
Profiles can be saved to your local library complete with custom name, orientation (anchor point, offsets, rotation), dimensions, material and layer. Create a new Profile simply by drawing a face in your model and adding it as a new Profile. Once you save the profile, you can load it and then re-use it in future projects.
In a recent survey of our customers, 42% said that they use Profile Builder in over 90% of their SketchUp projects and 74% said that they use it in OVER HALF of their SketchUp projects.
In the same survey, over 25% said that Profile Builder could save them over 100 hours of work per year! And 47% said that it could save them over 50 hours per year!
What is your time worth? Would you pay $79 to save 50 hours of work?
