Getting Scan Essentials

Downloading

Scan Essentials does not come with the standard installation of the SketchUp desktop application. You can download Scan Essentials from either the Account Management Portal > My Products page or from the SketchUp Extension Warehouse.

Installation

Please refer to the Adding Extensions article in our Help Center. Be aware that after the initial installation, you should close and restart the SketchUp application. When you launch the Scan Essentials application for the first time, secondary installation dialogs may appear in order to complete the installation process into SketchUp and LayOut.
