Create multiple objects with equal spacing.
Creating multiple objects with given equal spacing. (note: noob only)
In this tutorial i will show you how to create multiple copy of your object with given equal spaces.
(Probably my second tutorial so pls. bare with me again. )
1.) Open Sketchup. (Im using SU 6 and SU 7, dont know if this work with others)
2.) Create an object, ill be using a box for this example.
3.) Select / highlight your object. (i group my object in this example)
(note: it doesn't matter if you group it, make it component, or leave it as is.)
4.) Grab your move tool and create a copy of it by how far you want the distance per-objects.
(i use 5' as my distance)
5.) After you have specify the distance, type in the value of how many copy including the the last objects including "x", with x means multiply by. don't forget to put the "x". (ill be using 4 as my example.)
(note: im poor with math but this is how the computation happens, 4x1+1. which 4 as the Assign value.)
That's it, you made it. as simple as that.
Hope this help and understand it to. Good luck.
pls. comment for any suggestions.

additional information, if you want to create a horizontal alignment or any directions, in move tool(4), if you assign it vertical, horizontal or diagonal it will still copy the same exact position you assign to it. (pls. see example)

Re: Create multiple objects with equal spacing.
sir! ur back with ur easy to understand tutorials!!
just to add..
this technique is a big help for railings and other things that have equal distances like every floor for high rise bldgs with typical plans..
may part two ang technique na to..after creating those multiple objects..pwede ka pa gumawa ulit na pa vertical naman..
watch the video na lang sa "tube"..di ko maalala kc nde sya useful IMHO..
pero malay nyo maka2long sa inyo..
un lang..
thanks again for the crystal clear tutorial!
