      I have this

      and want to close look on the wall, but when I get closer, I see nothing or everything disappears. How can I watch the wall closer?

        I can't tell from that image but try setting the Camera to Perspective. Is the model close to the origin? If not, make it so.

          Turn off the Fog if it is on.

          I'm not here much anymore.

            That was Perspective. After correction to Parallel Projection was OK. But Now I don't see roof in Parallel View, no fog.

              This is definitely clipping: http://support.google.com/sketchup/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=36261

              May I suppose that you are modelling this for Google Earth? If so, another reason can be (apart from what is listed under that link): that you have geolocated your model twice - and one location is quite far away.

                Have you reset the models axes at all ?
                If so 'reset' them in the context-menu.
                Is ALL of the model's geometry near [within ~200m?] of the model's axes origin ?
                Do you have groups/components that have a sensible insertion point and that are sensibly located in the model, but that contain something far away from their origin - this could perhaps be just a tiny piece of a line - [this is common with CAD imports] - zoom-extents to see if you get unexpected results... or do you have any components that have their contents located sensibly in the model, but that have their origin [insertion-point] miles from its geometry [again common with CAD imports]... You can see components' insertion-point aces using the Model Info toggle...
                A Google-Earth imported mesh might also have similar axes issues ?
                Also... are you sure you are modeling in the correct units - e.g. what you are making is not unexpected gigantic or tiny... for example modeling in mm but thinking it's m [or vice-versa]] might have weird results...

                  It as late night when I had the problem. I saved the project and closed PC. When I started today, so all was right. Except, that when I loaded the file, it looked the same as on the screenshot. But when I moved and zoomed so everything in right in parallel view. I will come back here if I will have some similar issues. Thanks
