@Gus-R said in Delete Used Components:
Dave, by used I mean existing components. I do use purge unused by I wanted to get rid of a bunch of cabinet pulls.
OK. So you could have used the process I described, right clicking on the component thumbnail and selecting Delete. Would be faster than digging though Outliner, especially if the components are nested in groups or larger components.
NEW RELEASE: FredoSectiont v1.5a - 15 Jan 26
Requirements
FredoSection 1.5a is a maintenance release including:
Home Page of FredoSection for information and Download.
Also... have you installed the latest LibFredo6 and restarted SketchUp ?
On PCs in v2026.1 some nitwit swapped the order in the Preferences >Shortcuts listed for the Edit commands for Copy Ctrl+C and Ctrl+Insert, and also the Cut [+X/+Insert] and Paste [+V/+Insert] etc, so the Edit menu now gives you an illogical listing because the long established ones now come second and so they aren't listed in that menu.
They still work, Unfortunately they are hardwired and not editable in Preferences>Shortcuts.
Hopefully common sense will revert this weirdness in the next update.
Where do you want to delete them from? What do you mean by "used components"? If there are instances of them in the model space but you don't want them, go into the In Model Components panel. Right click on the component's thumbnail and choose Delete. That will remove all instances of the component from the model space. If there are no instances of the components in the model space, open the Details menu (black button to the right of the drop down list field) and click on Purge Unused.
There is a general problem with the TAB key in SU2026. The Tab key is not sent after a few hits. This concerns mainly Windows, but other weird problems have been detected on Mac.
The issue was logged to the Sketchup team. So, we'll probably have to wait for SU2026.2.
On my side, I logged the problem with the following video.
Some OSs protect/reserve certain Ctrl+Key combos, so your system might revert Ctrl+Q to Quit after changes. Try something else like Shift+Q and see what happens...
Alternatively, if you haven't installed SketchUp properly SketchUp might not be able to remember user's changes to shortcuts in their preferences file.
This will be obvious if changing a shortcut to something potentially innocuous isn't remembered across sessions.
To fix a faulty installation is simple.
Exit SketchUp and find its Installer exe file, usually in your Downloads folder.
Select its icon and right-click > context-menu > Run as administrator
When the dialog opens it should offer a 'Repair' option.
Choose 'Repair' and let it run,
this will fix the permissions of various files and folders,
so that your normal user-accounts changes to things like Shortcuts are remembered between sessions.
Choosing to 'Run' the installer's exe file, or double-clicking it is not the same as 'Run as administrator', even if your user has some admin-powers.
There's no need to Uninstall and Reinstall to fix things.
The Repair will not affect any customized changes or extension installations etc...
@FlorinAp that's exactly the same as it's been on Mac forever. The developers have indicated that vector import is on their roadmap.
