Description
eDrawings for SketchUp (latest version: 11.0.0.720) is an innovative tool developed by Geometric Ltd. that allows users to publish, share, and collaborate on Google SketchUp models with greater ease. This 3D Design software falls under the Photo & Graphics category and is distributed under a Shareware license.
The program's primary function is to provide read-only representations of SketchUp models that can be shared through self-executable files like LicenseConfigTool.exe, and SketchUp.exe. These files contain both the viewer and the design data, meaning recipients do not need to purchase or install any additional software to view the models.
With a file size of 46 MB, eDrawings for SketchUp supports various operating systems including Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, and 11. The program boasts a range of useful features such as ultra-compact representation compression, which allows for easy sharing over email, and the ability to add markup elements like text, dimensions, and geometric elements for enhanced communication.
Users can disable the measurement and STL export functions to protect sensitive data and even password-protect their files for added security. Additionally, the program facilitates design reviews by allowing an unlimited number of recipients to query the designs and provide feedback, ensuring efficient collaboration without needing additional software.
Previous versions of the program include 11.0, 8.0, and 7.2, showcasing its continued development and improvement. Not only this, but eDrawings for SketchUp offers cross-section views, the ability to move, show, and hide components for better understanding of assembly structures, and the capability to insert company logos and images as stamps in the files.
Pros:
- Free download and viewing for recipients

- Markup tools for enhanced communication
- No need for additional software for end recipients
