ClothFunWalk Into the Presentation With Fabric That Looks Real: Tablecloths, Curtains and Duvets That Fall by Physics in SketchUp

Be the designer whose scenes feel lived in. Stiff boxes for tablecloths and flat planes for curtains are what give a model away; ClothFun lets the fabric fall the way it really does. Select the table, pick the Tablecloth preset, press play: the cloth drops, drapes over the corners and settles into folds while you watch it live in the panel. One click on Bake and it lands in your model as soft, smooth geometry with its pattern. Curtains, awnings, flags, quilted duvets, tufted cushions, inflated objects, balloon letters, vacuum-wrapped covers, even objects that shatter and fall: all from the same panel, and SketchUp never stutters while the cloth moves.

What this plugin does

  • Drops a cloth onto the objects you pick and lets it drape by real physics
  • Hangs curtains, awnings and flags from an edge, an object or a point
  • Sews two-layer duvets, pillows and tufted cushions whose chambers puff up
  • Inflates objects, turns 3D text into balloon letters and vacuum-wraps covers
  • Drops, tumbles and shatters selected objects with real physics
  • Bakes the result into SketchUp as soft geometry, with one Undo
  • Exports the fall frame by frame as scenes for an animation
  • Keeps SketchUp smooth while the cloth moves in the panel

  1. 01

    Fabric that falls like fabric

    Drop a cloth onto the groups and components you pick, or hang it from a curtain rod edge, an object or a point. It collides with your model, folds over corners and sways in the wind; scrub the timeline back to any frame you like. Move the target while it runs and the cloth reacts to the new position.

  2. 02

    Sewn, filled, puffed

    Pick a stitch pattern and the cloth is sewn in two layers: every chamber between the seams puffs up. Square quilting for a duvet, an edge seam for a pillow, buttons for a tufted cushion; click a chamber to leave it half full or flat, or draw lines on a face in SketchUp and they become the seams.

  3. 03

    Baked into the model, one Undo away

    Bake turns the frame on screen into one group with soft, smooth inner edges and the pattern on both sides. Bake with the film strip re-runs the fall and makes one group, tag and scene per frame, ready for File, Export, Animation. Inflate, balloon text, vacuum wrap and break-and-drop bake the same way, and every result comes off with a single Undo.

  • Three steps in one panel: Add Cloth (type width × height, horizontal or vertical, or turn a selected flat face into cloth, such as a round table top or a window opening), Pick Targets (click groups and components in SketchUp or use the selection) and Drop / Attach.
  • Twelve one-click presets that set size, pins, physics and look together: Tablecloth, Curtain, Flag, Blanket, Tent Tarp, Awning, Duvet, Pillow, Cushion, Inflate, Balloon Text and Vacuum.
  • Attach in SketchUp: pins spread along an edge such as a curtain rod, follow a group or component when you move it, or gather at a point (hold Ctrl).
  • Live preview with play / pause, reset and a timeline you can scrub back to any recorded frame; the targets can be moved while the simulation runs.
  • Only four visible sliders (Gravity, Wind with a draggable compass, Stiffness from silk to canvas, Resolution 20 × 20 to 120 × 120); substeps, damping, friction, thickness, stretch resistance, weight, turbulence, gathering, frame count and self-collision live under Advanced.
  • Stitching and filling: six patterns (single layer, edge seam, square quilt, diamond, channels, buttoned), Filling and Stitch spacing sliders, click a chamber to make it full, half or flat; lines drawn on a SketchUp face become seams.
  • Inflate a selected closed object into a puffy fabric shell with a Pressure slider; turn selected 3D text or a logo into balloon letters sewn along their edges; Vacuum wrap pulls the cloth tight over an object.
  • Drop Objects tab: selected groups and components fall naturally, tumble and stack on each other and on targets down to the ground level, then Apply moves them in SketchUp.
  • Break and drop: a selected closed group or component splits into 4 to 150 pieces, blasts apart and falls with real physics; Apply builds the pieces as groups with the broken faces in their own colour.
  • Bake: the visible frame becomes one group with soft, smooth inner edges, a hard outline and the material on both sides; Bake with the film strip makes one group, tag and scene per frame for File › Export › Animation.
  • Fabric look: solid colour, gingham, checker or your own image, two colours and pattern size; the baked material carries the same pattern.
  • The physics runs inside the panel, so SketchUp does not update during the simulation and the model does not stutter; Performance Mode lowers resolution and substeps for slower computers.
  • Every bake, apply and break comes off with a single Undo; English and Turkish interface, auto / dark / light theme, a short three-step tour on first launch.
