After the module is on the workspace, most often you need to resize it. There are 2 ways to do this in total.


The first way is to use SketchUp's standard Scale tool. The tool can be selected with the mouse on the toolbar, or by pressing the "S" key on the keyboard. At this moment, the outer dimension of the module will turn yellow and small green cubes will appear on those sides where you can change the size of the module. You can grab them with the mouse and change the size of the module, stretching or narrowing it.

To set the exact size, you need to click on the overall green cube (do not hold down the mouse button, namely click 1 time), then enter the required size from the keyboard, adding "mm" at the end of the unit of measurement (without quotes) and press the Enter key. After that, the module will change its size along this axis.

The second way is to use the component parameters window. It contains parameters, by changing which, you can control the module. The size of the module including. Open this window and enter the desired dimensions, then press the Enter key or the "Apply" button at the bottom of the window.

You can change as many parameters as you want at one time. You can change the length, height, and depth of the module, then press Enter and the module will resize itself in all three directions.


Unlike regular SketchUp models, the geometry does not deform when the module is resized. Nothing stretches and no gaps form between the panels. All module components retain their thickness and correct position. This is one of the features of the EasyKitchen library.
