The following review written by one of the Software Informer contributors applies to version 6.0
Google SketchUP is software that allows you to build incredible 3D models in a fast and simple way. It has a complete tutorial in which you can learn how to use all its tools in no time. You can give your first steps exploring the tridimensional design world. Thanks to its simple tools, you can create 3D models of buildings, cars or any other thing you can think of.
SketchUp is an application of 3D design far away the picture we use to have about this utilities as very complicated tools of which very few know all its tricks. Creating a geometric shape is very simple. It's enough with draw a rectangle with the pencil tool and drag it with the mouse to give it volume. From there, is possible to create windows, doors and all kind of shapes you can imagine. Also, it allows to include colors and textures in the models.
SketchUp lets you export your constructions to different graphic formats such as JPG, BMB, TIFF, PNG. Once you have your creations ready, you can save, print on paper or send them to Google Warehouse (a gallery with 3D designs generated with Google SketchUp).
With this application, you can upload your models to Google Earth and this way share them with the rest of the users of this software. If you're capable of create a 3D image of a building or monument of your city, this is the right application for you.

Comment: As an engineer I need to cross hatch sections of my drawings. Whilst I find SketchUp Pro (version
generally very good I feel as though I have been conned. For a programme costing almost 400 euro
there is something missing. Even some of the cheapest cad progs. have this facility! I am not saying the programme is not worth the 398 euro I paid for it but I find the inability to
cross hatch (automatically) very negative!
