Hi! I’m a new user here. I’d like to ask for your insights regarding missing walls when creating a wall loop. Only one side is forming, and I’m not sure why. Any tips?
Hi user52,
Welcome to PlusSpec, it’s great to have you here!
I believe this is due to Dynamic Components not being enabled. If you follow the steps below it should resolve the issue.
- Select Extensions → Extension Manager.
- Make sure Dynamic Components are “enabled”. If it doesn’t, click the button to switch it to “enabled”, then click Apply Changes.
- Save the model to save the changes & close SketchUp. Note: This model can be discarded afterwards, so I’d recommend saving it on the desktop or somewhere easy to find.
- Open a new SketchUp model & the issue should be resolved when you try to draw walls.
Thank you for your response - unfortunately it does not work in my Sketchup that’s 2018 version. I’ve downloaded a latest sketchup version (free trial) and it works well there. However, since I only have Trial version of PlusSpecs - I want to confirm if this limits the estimating process like updating the price and such since its not working on my end. Thank you!
Why would you use Sketchup 18?
Hi user52,
The current trial version of PlusSpec is of our Pro version which doesn’t have all the functionality that our PlusDesignBuild version has. However, you should still be able to update prices using the Price Tool & then see these prices appear in a takeoff (example takeoff results shown below).
If you ever need any assistance on how to use a tool or feature, we have help icons located in the top-right corner of most of our dialogs that will take you to curated tutorial playlists for that tool/feature. You can also use the Beginner, Intermediate & Advanced buttons in the Splashscreen.
