I've been playing with sketchup and would like to copy the image and just past to another program, word or powerpoint. I cann't seem to find that option. How do i just copy an image to another program?

Thanks,
Pete

You want to make a 2d image of the model you are working on?

On a PC press 'Print Screen'.
Then paste it into a paint program or directly into Word, etc. (if it will allow you to do so.

Or, go to File>Export>2D Graphic and change the options and file output to your liking. You can use JPG, PNG, etc.

Thanks Mike, that was easy. Below is what I'm working on, nothing special, but I'm still just learning/playing with the sketchup thing. Still have some work to do on this frame, but at least I started it!

The devil is in the details when it come to sketchup, or any plans for that matter.

I learned a lot using Sketchup and only wish I was able to move quicker in Sketchup to support the final design details. I needed to move forwarded and the Sketchup model could not keep pace with the design/frame cutting. There where at least a few details I could have used Sketchup for! Hopefully I’ll be able to spend more time with Sketchup in the future. I have a few frame designes I’d like to model, just need some time! I’ve attached a few pics of the frame as of this past weekend.

Thanks,
Pete
