Are you working on a project in SketchUp and need to hide a measurement line? Don’t worry, it’s a simple process. In this tutorial, we will guide you through the steps to hide a measurement line in SketchUp.
Step 1: Select the Line
To hide a measurement line in SketchUp, you first need to select the line that you want to hide. You can do this by either clicking on the line directly or using the selection tool to select it.
Step 2: Open the Entity Info Window
Once you have selected the line, you need to open the Entity Info window. To do this, go to the “Window” menu at the top of the SketchUp interface and click on “Entity Info”. Alternatively, you can use the keyboard shortcut “Ctrl + Shift + I” (Windows) or “Cmd + Shift + I” (Mac) to open the Entity Info window.
Step 3: Hide the Line
In the Entity Info window, you will see various properties and information about the selected line. Look for an option called “Length” or “Dimension”. This option may vary depending on your version of SketchUp.
Note: If you don’t see this option in your Entity Info window, it means that your selected line is not a measurement line. Make sure that you have selected the correct line before proceeding.
To hide the measurement line, simply uncheck or deselect the checkbox next to the “Length” or “Dimension” option. This will remove or hide the measurement value from your selected line.
Troubleshooting:
If you are unable to find or access the Entity Info window in SketchUp, make sure that you have the correct version of SketchUp installed. Some older versions may not have this feature.
Alternatively, you can try right-clicking on the selected line and looking for an option called “Hide Dimension” or similar. This option may be available directly in the context menu without needing to open the Entity Info window.
Conclusion
Hiding a measurement line in SketchUp is a straightforward process. By following these simple steps, you can easily remove or hide measurement lines from your SketchUp drawings.
Remember to select the line, open the Entity Info window, and uncheck the “Length” or “Dimension” option to hide the measurement line. Now you can present your design without any distracting measurement lines!
Happy Sketching!
