With LayOut’s Style tool (), you can sample the style settings applied to one entity and apply those same settings to another entity. Say you remove the stroke from a rectangle and fill it with blue, as shown in the following figure. Then you decide to apply the same settings to the orange rectangle. Instead of redoing all that work, use the Style tool to accomplish the same result in two clicks.

LayOut’s interface contains the basic tools and features you need to create documents and presentations to suit your design needs. Parts of the LayOut interface, and the way you navigate a LayOut document, can look and feel a lot like SketchUp. There are still some key differences to keep in mind.
