Importing, Exporting, and Deleting Classifications

Importing

To import a classification into a SketchUp model, follow these steps:

1. Select Window > Model Info .
2. In Model Info, select Classifications .
3. In Classifications, click Import . By default, a file browser opens to your user Classifications folder.
4. If you copy your .skc or .xsd file to the Classifications folder, select the file you want and click Open. Otherwise, click the Browse button to import a file from another location.

When you import a classification, that data is embedded into the SketchUp file. So if you share a SketchUp model with someone else and they open the file on their copy of SketchUp, they can reference and use the same classification.

Exporting

If you receive a SketchUp file that has an embedded classification, you can export that classification to a .skc file on your computer by following these steps: 

1. Select Window > Model Info .
2. In Model Info, select Classifications .
3. In Classifications, click Export . 

Deleting 

When you remove a classification from your SketchUp model, you also remove the type and attribute data from that SketchUp file. Any classifications saved locally on your computer will stay where they are. To delete a classification from a SketchUp model: 

1. Select Window > Model Info .
2. In Model Info, select Classifications .
3. In Classifications, click Delete .
