Adding Sketchup model to photo
1 - 10 of 10 Posts
Do you have adobe Photoshop? I don't know where to start otherwise.
Import the photo and then draw on it? Pretty simple. There are other ways but are harder and more time consuming using photo-match etc..
The scale would be wrong, wouldn't itImport the photo and then draw on it? Pretty simple. There are other ways but are harder and more time consuming using photo-match etc..
Right now I have the model and the photo just have to add 1 to the other.
I may just try to add the model to the photo an then scale it.
When I did it it was easy but not easy enough that I remember it :laughing:
So what program are you using?!
You can scale the photo in Sketchup once imported. If you know some or one measurement/dimension in the photo, it's very easy to do.The scale would be wrong, wouldn't it

Sketchup Pro 2013 the new oneSo what program are you using?!
How do you scale the photo? I just scaled the model and it worked but somehow I lost the textures between the model view and the photomatch view. I must have a setting incorrect.You can scale the photo in Sketchup once imported. If you know some or one measurement/dimension in the photo, it's very easy to do.
My brain must be going, I used to be able to do it easily but now, ..... so sad
They made a couple of changes in pro 2013 which should not have thrown me off but it did
I see what your doing now. I normally would export my model into the photo using photoshop. With photoshop I would isolate the model and layer it over the photo stretching it to fit the given proportions of the photo.
If your only using sketchup then you should do a search on adding background to model tutorials. In that case the photo is added to a vertical surface and you can pull that surface around to make the proportions right.
