SketchUp has no built-in fillet or chamfer command. The geometry engine makes this deliberate: SketchUp models from scratch using flat faces and clean edges, so a fillet operation would need to add faces that never existed — a fundamentally different task than modifying existing ones. The three tools below each solve this differently, and understanding […]

When multiple components (com) are copied from one original, to edit 1 com without changing others you need to make it unique. However with many coms, making unique for each one takes a long time — use the auto make unique tool to process multiple SketchUp components at once. A little-known point: when you select […]

Download Decimify for SketchUp (free .rbz) → Decimify is a free SketchUp polygon reducer that imports external models in GLB/STL format and reduces the face count of SketchUp geometry. SketchUp 2020 added native GLTF/GLB import — but it has no built-in decimator. When the imported object has a dense mesh, SketchUp’s Soften/Smooth Edges and Hidden […]

Get BevelUp on Extension Warehouse (free) → SketchUp’s 3D modeler still has no fillet or chamfer command for rounding the edges of a solid, so softening a corner usually means fighting with Follow Me or buying a paid extension. (SketchUp 2026 did add Fillet and Chamfer tools — but only inside LayOut, for 2D vector […]

SketchUp has no built-in mesh simplification or decimation tool — this is a deliberate design decision, not an oversight. SketchUp was designed for architects drawing from scratch, not for processing meshes imported from game engines or Megascans. When you import a file from 3D Warehouse, receive an FBX from a client, or export from Revit, […]
