The description of SKP Export for AutoCAD - Play With New Friends

SKP Export for AutoCAD is a SketchUp SKP file export plug-in for AutoCAD®. This plug-in gives AutoCAD the ability to export geometric data from AutoCAD to SKP files.SKP Export for AutoCAD extracts facet data from 3D Solids as well as 3D Face, Polygon Mesh and PolyFace Mesh objects in the active AutoCAD drawing and exports it to a SKP file. These objects can lie anywhere in space. 3D Solids are tessellated into triangular faces. The level of tessellation can be controlled by adjusting the resolution slider in the SKP Export for AutoCAD options dialog box. A lower resolution will yield coarse meshes (lesser faces), whereas a higher resolution will result in finer meshes (more faces).SKP Export for AutoCAD is very easy to use. Once installed, it must be loaded into the AutoCAD environment. There are simple instructions for this in the ReadMe file. Once loaded it adds new commands to AutoCAD's existing commands and a new submenu called "SKPExport" to the AutoCAD menu containing these newly added commands.The 'SKPExport' menu consists of the following commands:SKPExport - Exports a SKP fileSKPExportHelp - Displays the SKP Export for AutoCAD help fileSKPExportRegister - Registers your copy of SKP Export for AutoCADSKPExportAbout - Displays the SKP Export for AutoCAD About boxThe SKP File FormatSketchUp is a 3D modeling program designed for architects, civil engineers, filmmakers, game developers, and related professions.
