There’s a place for questions and ideas, however we’d like to encourage you to email our support for detailed technical problems. We recently relaunched our forum – be our guest and take part in the discussions! Have a look at images that other architects and designers around the world share, and of course you can post your own to hear what others think about your work. This will allow you to improve the detail or your scene further. The next update will include support for proxy geometry and artificial lights.

Section PlanesĮnscape shows the Section Planes as drawn in SketchUp. This can be handy if you use an external monitor or projector for Enscape and want to edit or navigate from your laptop screen. Just hit the camera icon with the blue arrow and Enscape will mimic your SketchUp viewport. You can use the SketchUp navigation scheme by enabling the live camera synchronization. You can find a list of possible keywords in our Knowledgebase. In many cases, this works out of the box if your water is already specified as “water” in SketchUp. We use a material keyword system to add detail to the limited SketchUp materials. This allows you to use Enscape during your whole workflow across different construction or modeling tools. You can use it for all our current and future plugins. This means you don’t have to buy a separate SketchUp (or Revit vice versa) license. If you are already an Enscape user, you can use your license for SketchUp too. Right now, some features of Enscape for SketchUp (like the grass and the improved water) are even ahead of the Revit version, but there will be no difference soon. In future, we want to bring these to the same level to make the feature set identical. Up to now, the SketchUp release has been separated from the Revit version. Virtual reality functions for both Oculus and HTC Vive are also available with Enscape for SketchUp and are accessible with a single click.

You also have the same export options such as 360° panoramas and the. It has the same one click functionality and updates your Enscape scene as you modify your project in SketchUp.

Enscape, the real time rendering plugin you ( hopefully) love, now works with SketchUp! If you already know Enscape for Revit, you’ll feel right at home.
