Summary

Inferencing is something that you start using the second you hop into SketchUp. Everyone uses it, but only skilled users take advantage of everything it can do. To truly take advantage of inferencing, you need to understand not just axis and color inferences but also parallel and perpendicular inferences, which we discussed in this chapter. We also learned about snap points and how to use grips when moving objects.

In Chapter 5, Creating Beautiful Custom Materials, we will be looking at the process of importing imagery and creating custom materials for use with the Paint Bucket tool.
