This command creates a CAD block from a SketchUp model and
inserts this block into the drawing.
After
selecting the .skp file to import, the options dialog shows the
dimensions of the model at the top of the dialog.
Layer: Sets the layer for the block in the drawing.
Scale Factor: Allows resizing the model. For example, when
the SketchUp model is in inches and the drawing in feet, use a
scale factor of 0.0833333.
Prompt For Rotation: This option prompts to pick a second
point for rotation of the block in the drawing.
Place Multiple: Sets whether to place a single block in the
drawing or allow for drawing multiple copies.
Elevation By: The Pick method uses the elevation of the
picked points. The Fixed method uses the Elevation from the
dialog. The Surface method prompts for a grid or triangulation file
to use for the elevation.
