      Hello,

      I have tried several times to reproduce this issue and can not. I tried Windows 7 64 and 32 bit. I have tried image, documents, folders, shortcuts, in detail view, thumbnail view, tile view. The file moves across the SketchUp work space, SketchUp shows the image as if I were going to place it and then the file is moved into the new directory.

      There has to be something I'm missing if others can reproduce it and I can't.

      Please let me know what I'm missing?

      Thank you.

        Hi Brad,

        I added a link to the video screen-grab in the bug report. I cannot really say more - it just happens any time I do this. Maybe it's a video card dependent crash?

        Gai...

          I have gotten confirmed a case where MT could cause SU to crash.

                I don't have that installed, but I have other two thumbnail generators:
                Real World (I use it just for 3ds files) and This for dwg files. I could not find something to generate thumbnails for all of them.

                Now, that you mention it, I think that those two programs to make my days bad.

                Is there any better alternative? I really need to see dwg/dxf and 3ds thumbnails.

                  I have Windows7-64 Pro and AutoCad Architecture 2011 and I can see thumbnails/preview images for DWG files. I would guess that if you don't have AutoCad, installing the DWG TrueView (free download from Autodesk) might give the same functionality. Also, TrueView is very useful by itself as a viewer and converter. Besides viewing and printing it can convert to old DWG and DXF formats down to AutoCad version 10 or 12 (from the early 1990s).

                    Indeed, is free download, but is trial version 😞. It costs $1200.
                    Thanks anyway. I'll be looking for free alternatives (or very low-cost, if it worths the money).

                      Are you quoting the price of AutoCad LT? The viewing application Autodesk DWG TrueView IS free,

                      ( I noticed that they are advertising for LT on the right of the page, while the "Download now" button on the left, in the text column is much smaller...clever businessmen?)

                        Thanks Anssi! I got caught myself in that marketing trap, I guess... Now I downloaded the free version.
