Environments in 3D Warehouse
Environments allow you to add 360°panoramic backgrounds and image-based lighting conditions to your SketchUp models. The Environments panel offers a few environment options. If you want to add more, check out the Environments section of the SketchUp Content Library in 3D Warehouse.
