However, you can override this behavior by clicking the Select Nodes button to display the SketchUp node hierarchy in the SketchUp Node Selection Dialog window. If a node is hidden in the SketchUp file, Unity does not import the node by default. Unity supports the visibility setting in the SketchUp file for each node. SketchUp file with a cube set to 1m in heightĬhanging the default Unit Conversion values affects the scale of the imported file: The green square is placed as reference where the size of the square is set to 1x1 unit length. The rest of the options on the Inspector window are the regular FBX Model import options that are available for any 3D modeling application.īy default, Unity scales SketchUp models to 1 meter (0.0254 inches) to 1 unit length.
