Hidden Geometry Options
Lines –
Hidden – You can’t see them, but it doesn’t affect adjacent faces
Soften – Hides edge and makes SketchUp treat adjacent faces as a single face
Smooth – Affects adjacent faces – SketchUp
Soften Edges Option
Soften – By angle
Smooth – Matches face looks
Soften Coplanar – If lines are on the same faces?
Faces – hidden geometry
Objects are made up of a series of flat faces – spheres, cylinders, etc
Turn on hidden geometry to see the lines that make up these faces – these lines are all set to soft, so they act like guide lines. However, if you select them, you can uncheck the box labeled “soft” to make them actual lines.
Finally, you can use hidden geometry to act as a guide for drawing on.
