Step 4: Edit and modify the imported OBJ file

Once the OBJ file is imported into SketchUp, you can begin editing and modifying it to fit your 3D modeling needs. Use SketchUp's intuitive tools to make any changes or additions to the imported object.

Exporting OBJ files from SketchUp

In addition to importing OBJ files into SketchUp, you may also need to export your 3D models in OBJ format for use in other 3D modeling software or applications. Here's how to export your SketchUp model as an OBJ file:

Step 1: Select 'Export' from the 'File' menu

Similar to the import process, start by clicking on the 'File' menu and selecting the 'Export' option.

Step 2: Choose OBJ as the export format
