Redlining on iPad has traditionally been limited to 2D viewing and markup apps. Markup mode allows users to sketch, redline, and annotate on top of their 3D models using Apple Pencil, combining the fluidity of trace paper with the tools of a digital touchpad.
SketchUp’s arrival on iPad brings a new era of design and construction collaboration. The application supports Apple Pencil, multi-touch gestures, and mouse and keyboard, offering maximum mobility while maintaining compatibility with additional accessories for those that use them. SketchUp files synchronize seamlessly across devices with the help of Trimble Connect, allowing users to start a project on iPad and pick it back up on web, desktop, or even mobile devices. Today, our work needs to be easily transportable, and with SketchUp for iPad, it is.” The last couple of years have brought a new perspective to the way we work, fast-tracking our ability to work outside of the office. “I enjoy the mobile aspect of SketchUp for iPad because I can take my design work anywhere. “It’s been liberating,” said Omar Calderon Santiago, design principal at Perkins Eastman, a global design firm. The latest version of SketchUp was explicitly designed with iPad’s touchscreen in mind, creating an intuitive user interface and tools that take advantage of this highly portable and powerful piece of hardware. With SketchUp for iPad designers can bring their 3D models on the go, from cars to remote workspaces and construction sites.Īrchitects and designers are increasingly collaborating in 3D across multiple locations in any given week, and SketchUp for iPad fits seamlessly into this way of working. It’s a transformative moment for one of the Architecture, Engineering, and Construction (AEC) industry’s most popular software. I have never seen an answer as to WHY it’s not available – only that it’s not.Ĭan any one shed some light? Thanks in advance.Trimble has taken a big leap forward in mobile technology for architects with SketchUp for iPad. I’ve noticed discussion topics that show the question has been asked with the answer basically stating it is not available with the “marketing line” of we’re always evaluating requirements but do not speculate on futures. I truly want to dump the pencil and paper and use the technology on my desk for the projects I’m now into. I moved to the iPad Pro (12.9) which has been fantastic. I then reverted to pencil & paper for a couple of years until the laptop gave up the ghost. All was still good until my version was eclipsed and unsupported. I’m not a power user – the free basic version was just perfect for me. I stsrted using Sketchup years ago when I ran a Windows based system. Is there a free version of Sketchup that will run on an iPad Pro? I’m new to this forum so this may not be the correct spot to ask this question.
