Mac pc differences- AGAIN

Dave R

i've never seen that happen on either my PC or Mac.

Something i need to also understand is the difference in saving

The file names change sometimes
example

doc1.skp is what i opened
gets changed to 0.skp
then 1.skp
for the most recent......

whys this?

c

0.skp, 1.skp is temp files SketchUp to to write to, once the model is successfully written to file the 0.skp file will replace the original and 0.skp will be removed.

Dave R

Ah, I thought the he was saying the file name is getting changed.

Am i doing something wrong?

They should not remain - something strange is going on. Where are you storing your files? Network drive?

hello again, been away from the computer for a few days - apologise for the delay

my files are stored in Documents which is on the local hard drive

i've experienced another difference.
(PC) I resized the viewport and all the tool bars I'd arranged neatly are now haphazardly all over the place. ?

Dave R

Yes. This is a normal sort of thing. After you put the toolbars where you want them, go to View>Toolbars and choose Save toolbar (or whatever it says.) In the future you can choose Restore Toolbars to reset them after resizing the window.
