It works as the document file format of the SketchUp. This application is a 3D modeling program specially created for civil engineers, professional architects, game developers, and filmmakers. The SKP file extension is an image file, which can be a design of buildings that can be displayed using Google Earth. Creating this file extension is even easier and flexible because of the many features and functionalities offered by the SketchUp. But among the many features of SketchUp, the 3D Warehouse is the most popular.
Included to the other features that the user can enjoy while creating the SKP file extension is the drawing cursor of the SketchUp application, which permits the drawing of 3D images with a 2D mouse and screen. Other features include an interactive Heliodon, interoperability with the Google Earth, and the capability to animate the sun movements and camera. Creating the SKP file extension can also be done by individually coloring the materials and textures of the image.
Another use of the SKP file extension is also related to being an image file, since it works for AutoSketch. Specifically, the SKP file extension works as a SketchUp component for the said application. Unlike SketchUp, AutoSketch is a drawing program used to create 2D vector images. It is simpler than the AutoCAD and does not have any support for 3D models. The SKD file extension is used by this application as its native file format. But this to enable the user to work with the application SketchUp through the AutoSketch only uses the SKP file extension.
The SKP file extension is not only working as an image file, since it also works as a play file for the SSEYO Koan application. This consists of a generative music engine called simply as Koan. In addition, the SKP file extension is also working as a print format for the Sage Accounting Software.
