Description

Example(s)

AND(logicalValue1, logicalValue2, ...logicalValueN)

The AND function returns TRUE if all arguments are TRUE. If any element is FALSE, this function returns the FALSE value. The logicalValue arguments are conditions to be checked. All conditions can be either TRUE or FALSE.

FALSE()

The False function sets the logical value to FALSE. The FALSE function does not require any arguments.

View SketchUp Example

IF(test, thenValue, elseValue)

The IF function identifies a logical test. The test argument is any value or expression that can be TRUE or FALSE. The thenValue (optional) is the value that is returned if the logical test is TRUE. The elseValue (optional) is the value that is returned if the logical test is FALSE.

Example:
=IF (5=5, 1, 0)
Returns a 1 if the test (5=5) is TRUE. Otherwise, the function returns a 0.

NOT(logicalValue)

The NOT function reverses the logicalValue. The logicalValue argument is any value to be reversed.

OR(logicalValue1, logicalValue2, ...logicalValueN)

The OR function returns TRUE if at least one argument is TRUE. This function returns FALSE if all the arguments have the logical value FALSE. The logicalValue arguments are conditions to be checked. All conditions can be either TRUE or FALSE.

TRUE()

The TRUE function turns the logical value to TRUE. The TRUE() function does not require any arguments.

Adding an Environment to a Model

Environments allow you to add 360°panoramic backgrounds and image-based lighting conditions to your SketchUp models. The Environments panel is where you can add and manipulate environments, or import High Dynamic Range Image (HDRI) files or OpenEXR files to create a new environment.

Adding Attributes

Attributes make components dynamic by telling SketchUp what to do. You can choose from predefined attributes or create custom attributes:

Adding Premade Components and Dynamic Components

Components in SketchUp turn geometry in a model into reusable entities. For example, most buildings have at least one door and window. Instead of modeling these common objects, you can insert a component that you have already made, or even one made by someone else.Like all geometry in SketchUp, a component is still
