Features for 3skeng Tools

We checked our workflow looking for design helpers we use on a regular basis and that are not available for our users. We came up with a bundle of useful productivity icons and added the "3s Style View" toolbar in 3skeng!



The following features are available for active tool licenses (demo and full version) and make it very easy to apply changes, add labels and create bills of material (BOM).

3skeng Client This control interface is the hub that gives you access to tools, libraries, standards, settings and a comprehensive context sensitive tutor. In parallel with the workflow the client supports you by giving options to choose from and detailed information - whenever needed and necessary. Add tools and libraries, select standards, adjust settings or watch the tutorials without ever having to interrupt your workflow.

Edit and Rotate This tool helps you to modify the model in all feasible degrees of freedom. The speed of the tool allows you show changes and suggestions live in meetings - without anyone losing interest! The tool is intuitive in a way that nearly follows your ideas by itself. Use magnetic points for reference or the input of numeric values in the familiar SketchUp way. Works with 3skeng Pipe, Mount, Steelwork and Channel.

Connect With this tool you can rearrange or copy already generated Pipeline elements. Magnetic points will help you to connect the elements exactly aligned to the pipe center and direction. "Multicopy": All selected elements stay glued to the mouse until you press “Escape”. Works with 3skeng Pipe, Mount and Channel.

Label This tool enables you to add text labels to groups and components. Various adjustable parameters allow individual adaptations to the particular label task at hand. During the automated alignment you determine the position and distance of the labels. Future changes can be made in no time at all. Works with all 3skeng elements.

List The List Tool received a major redevelopment and ended up being a powerful stand-alone tool that bridges the gap between the two worlds of SketchUp and Excel and brings them together as one. Pipe, Mount, Steelwork and Channel come with the List features for their (tool-specific) elements. Learn more about the List features here.
