In this article, we will handle how to make a line rendering from SketchUp and Vray.

We’ve imported a model from the 3D Warehouse to show you what steps you have to take. There are two significant strides to move toward this inquiry. Initially, we’re demonstrating what you’ll have to do in Sketchup.
