      Is it still present with the release version?

      As mentioned - there was talk about during the beta in the beta forum. Since you where a beta tester you should be able to access it. Think there might be a workaround. But in any case you should report this to ASGVis.

        Yes the problem persist with official release 😒

        I'm not a beta tester, I have bought the soft in special offer since is a beta...
        can you tell me the link of the beta forum 'cause i don't found it?

        I hope you are right: "there might be a workaround"

          Ah - you pre-ordered. The beta section is only visible to beta testers, so any link won't be any good.

              Carlo, have you tried a permissions repair? Also, are you using 10.5.5? I'd upgrade to 10.5.8 (8 or 9? I can't remember!).

              Try that. πŸ˜„

                V-ray (from yesterday final release) works well but the annoying keyboard input interference when SketchUp is in background, is not ended. (SketchUp Pro 7.1.6859 Eng version over italian localized Mac Os X and permission repaired many times).

                  😒 permission repair don't work!!

                  I have Mac OsX snowleo italian too (but I don't think this is the reason of interference)

                  We need of urgent repair of this BUG 😑

                    Hi, My problem regarding shortcut keys (when I use them in another program while sketchup is also open in the background) is solved! I was looking in the Universal acces pane in System preferences. There I saw the option "enable access for assistive devices" turned ON. I turned it OFF and gone was my problem!!! Maybe this can help you guys?

                    Regards,

                    Peter

                        I've reported this to ASGVis. This is just a workaround, not a true solution. Someone might want to use that feature.
                        But glad it worked for you.

                            Yup, thomthom beat me to it. The reason it was never fixed, is nobody could ever tell us how to reproduce the issue. It randomly happens on some users machines ::shrugs:: So as soon as we figure out what that problem is, we can look in to fixing it. Until then, screw universal access and the horse it rode in on πŸ˜‰

                              Thank you dkeding... I'm happy that ASGVis know the problem and work for resolve it.

                              Now I understand the events:
                              One week ago I have bought a very interesting utility called ForeverSave "the first application featuring a revolutionary method to save all your documents you are working on. An advanced backup management offers the opportunity to browse through all of your saved versions".
                              The bad news is that ForeverSave use UNIVERSAL ACCESS (and switch it on automatically).
                              So now I can't use the application that can save me from loosing works and prevents from application crash or unintentional overwriting... especially useful with SketchUp!

                              I hope ASGVis solve it soon

                                raumplan: drop a message to ASGVis support email address and see if you can assist them in reproducing this.

                                  Hey guys, I just checked preferences and also found this box checked (I didn't check it!).

                                  Perhaps this is a bug in Snow Leopard, that it gets switched on after upgrading? πŸ˜•

                                  (I don't have either V-ray or that other app)

                                    Tom, you have the same problem with SU catching key events - without V-Ray installed?

                                      Well, that's it, I haven't (had the problem). I was primarily interested in the thread, because this was an apple issue that I was interested in seeing the outcome of what happened.

                                      However, like you guys, the assistive option checkbox was ticked on my computer.
