CatchUp Edition 6

It’s all well an good being able to adjust everthing imaginable but in the end it is output we are interested in. Well LightUp doesn’t disappoint on that front. But what I found interesting with LightUp was how closely tied to SketchUp it is. Firstly, the output is in the same viewport that you model in. So no second window or exporting to another application it sits within the same comfortable space you know and love. There are other nice touches that just make so much sense. One being the use of Dynamic Components. If it animates in SketchUp it also animates in LightUp. Other nice features are that enabling fog in SketchUp also creates fog in LightUp. These small touches just add greatly to the overall experience. But LightUp doesn’t stop there. It adds a set of components to your Library which makes to things that much more easier to get your scenes setup quicker.
