  1. In SketchUp, what does the Move tool do when you copy geometry using the Ctrl key (Option on Mac)?

    Answer: Creates a copy of the selected geometry at the destination

    Holding Ctrl (Option on Mac) while using the Move tool creates a copy of the selected geometry instead of moving the original.

  2. What is the purpose of the Rotate tool in SketchUp?

    Answer: Spins selected geometry around a specified pivot point and axis

    The Rotate tool spins selected geometry around a pivot point you click, with rotation constrained to the plane you set.

  3. How do you constrain drawing along a specific axis in SketchUp?

    Answer: Press the arrow keys (Up, Down, Left, Right)

    Pressing the arrow keys while drawing locks movement to the corresponding axis: Up/Down for blue, Right for red, Left for green.

  4. What does the Scale tool do in SketchUp?

    Answer: Resizes selected geometry by dragging handles or typing a scale factor

    The Scale tool resizes geometry uniformly or non-uniformly by dragging green handles, and you can type exact scale factors or dimensions.

  5. What is the Offset tool used for in SketchUp?

    Answer: Creating a parallel copy of edges or a face inset/outset at a set distance

    The Offset tool creates a new set of edges parallel to the original, either inset or outset from the selected face or edges.

  6. Which SketchUp tool would you use to divide a face or edge into equal segments?

    Answer: Divide command via right-click on an edge

    Right-clicking an edge and choosing 'Divide' lets you specify the number of equal segments to split it into.
