Add Material Tags to Your SketchUp Model

Start out by opening your SketchUp model. Select any material in your model that you would like to add an enhancement tag to.

Next, open the materials drop down menu on the right side. Using the paint dropper tool, click anywhere on your selected material to identify the material label. 

In the material label field, add one of the below tags before the original label. Make sure there is a space between the Material Tag and the original label. For example: #JumpMetal original label
