Thanks very much Ray. I'm having a play around with it, it's taking me a while as I'm so used to sketchup but I'm getting familiar with the ribbon at the top, I'll get back to you once I've had a few more tries! Thanks again.

Hi there Im totally new to landmark but in desperate need to learn it! Im good on sketchup and use it on a day to day basis so hopefully can pick it up quick. However there seems to be no you tube videos or very little ones so its making it harder to learn... What I would like to learn is to export a sketchup model into layout without losing its scale and dimensions in 2d and 3d and use the fantastic plant database, (which I don't know how to use yet) to 'plant up'. The sketchup database of plants isn't great and Im finding it very laggy. Then I need to be able to convert it into a scale e.g 1:20 and export it as a pdf on the appropriate paper source or photoshop? Any help would be much appreciated! I have skype too! (mac book pro user but can download the windows version) Thanks landscape architecture student
