You can even save your formatted report as a reporting template, to speed the process of re-running the same reports as the design changes.

The new Generate Report feature allows you to choose which attributes are exported (including a new attribute for capturing quantities), assign an order for the columns in your report, and specify a units format.

And if your component was downloaded from 3D Warehouse, you can also use the context-click to quickly access its 3DWH details page. This action will reload every instance of that component in your model (similar to the same action in the Components dialog), so it’s a helpful method for working with proxy models. In SketchUp 2016, a context click on a component gives you the opportunity to reload (or swap out) a new component directly from 3D Warehouse.

As you’re modeling you can even pull in and update reference SketchUp models as if they were locally hosted components. Trimble Connect allows users to publish, open, import reference files and update SKPs from Trimble Connect project folders. If you already have an account for 3D Warehouse or Extension Warehouse, we recommend that you use the same login (email) when creating a Trimble Connect Account. Once you've signed up then start uploading. Trimble Connect is a new way to store, sync, reference, share, and collaborate on design/build projects.
