      If "rest of model is hidden", shouldn't it stay hidden? I noticed ghosts when editing a component and I move around; "hide rest of model" is activated. I have nVidia 9500 GT, so I don't think is graphic card issue.
      Ghosts are persistent after moving operation (about 1 second or less), this is how I could make the print-screen.

        Initially it looks like a graphics card issue; have you tried changing some settings in Preferences > OpenGL and seeing if it improves.
        Have you used Model Info > Statistics > Fix Problems...
        Is the model very large in size - miles?
        Another possibility is that the modestly sized SKP's origin is many many miles away from its contents [perhaps a CAD import with preserved origin], or perhaps you have some components with their origins miles away from their geometry [perhaps CAD imports again]...

          I think it's an issue in SU's adaptive degradation feature.

          You're running SU8 M1?

            Model is small: a room with very little furniture, no complex geometry, origin is set on a corner of the room. SU version is the last one.
            Maybe just another of many SU glitches.

              Have you checked the component origin issue I mentioned?
              Switch Component Axes to be visible in Model Info - right-click change axes to move them if they are any miles off...

                Yep, everything is fine.
                Anyway, is not the first time when it happens, I can work with it.. I considered putting this on the forum to see if anyone else experiences such things and also I hope in improvements on SU 9 πŸ˜„

                  I agree it is a bug - SketchUp is showing boxes for objects that are hidden in order to improve performance. Seems like a waste of computing resources.

                    It can even show wireframe boxes of components on hidden layers.
