      Have just done so.

      This is very annoying. Both are extremely important to my job!

      Someone out there must have Podium V2.1 and witnessed the same problem?

        I have Podium - but I use SU8.

        It could be some crash in an observer - which has been fixed in SU8.

          Unfortunatly I cannot get SU8 (wrok IT wont allow). I have told the Podium people, they say get the latest update of Podium V2, which i have. No fix as yet 😞

            I never understood IT policies like that. The latest version fixes many bugs and issues. Sometimes it appear that IT department makes life easier for them - not the users... πŸ˜’

                Do they take into the account of the time spend for each user having to deal with bugs and crashes of the older version?

                  haha...Dont get me started!

                  We have an IT Help desk to log complaints, which i cannot log into at present...so they cant even hear me problems, let alone deal with them....

                  Do you know off the top of your head how much a SU8 upgrade is?

                    If you don't rely on the Pro features you can off course get the free version - you can have it side by side with your Pro SU7.

                      I have found a resolution to my problem.

                      I have right clicked the sketchup 7 icon and gone to properties/compatibility then ticked β€˜run this program in compatibility mode for:’ Windows XP (service pack 3) as in the attached image. Now I can use drape successfully when SU podium V2 plugin is installed.

                          Hello, I have the same issue, but with XP SP3.

                          DRAPE command from SANDBOX ou TIG's SUPERDRAPE... all off them crashes my SU.7.

                          I too have SU Podium 2.11... and when take it off from plugins folder, all DRAPES commands works fines and with no crashes.
                          Going to SUPodium forum submitt a bug report.
