A community chat about SketchUp's future
-
I was hoping chat on the future of SU ala Trimble. A few hints anyway. It's sort of the usual wish list and the usual answers...
But cool of the SU team to do this. Hope more of this comes along.
Neat to see various greats like Daniel Tal chime in.
-
Right now my brain blanked out. I'm sure there's tons of things I'd think of when the chat ends...
-
Cool idea, I hope they do it again. Unfortunate that the format is causing so many issues.

Very hard to follow the conversation eventually. No good way to spotting new posts.
-
Crappy !
There must be better ways to 'chat' than that - it was pants...
Not being able to post for another 8 minutes after making a brief comment is tooooo much...There were some interesting posts but they were all subsumed in a quagmire of dross...

Skype?
Remeber when we last had that big pow wow
I found it interesting enough. Not the nicest thing look at but then I'm acclimatized to this place too much

Seemed to be for the first handful of comments. Maybe new users..?
I could eventually spam as much as I do here... -

A bit more fodder for discussion, we just launched a new gallery of user projects. Notice anything new?
A bit late to the party, but that viewer looks awfully like a stripped down version of Sketchup running in the browser.
Could it be this is a preview of an official full version of Sketchup in the browser? ...that would be neat!!

That 3D orbiting feature is pretty cool. Not sure if it's new though
It's WebGL! Anyone else done that for SketchUp models?
That I know I was just unsure if this 3D viewer was new/ in-house developed or just using One already out there.
The Viewer was developed by the SketchUp team. It is not off the shelf technology. As ThomThom correctly points out, it is WebGL based. This technology is still pretty green, but holds great promise.

I see the Trimble logo is appearing on some of the pages now:

It's so funny how that page gives a bit of a twisted view on plugins, especially on the photorealistic rendering.
Just putting in an alphabetic list isn't the way to go..
I mean: Arielvision? Caravagio Render? lol
... They look like ray tracers of the nineties .
When a Sketchup user is noob to rendering, they will get all lost in that list.
