Warning triangle appears in Layout viewports

[Philip A]

Hi everybody! My first post, and a question... In Layout, I have all of a sudden yellow warning triangles appearing in my viewports, and I can't update the reference file from SU. I can do a "Render", but the outcome does not correspond fully to the SU scene it's supposed to update.

I have viewports from two different SU files in the same Layout document, don't know if this is of relevance.

Anybody knows what's the cause, and the solution?

Thanks!

The yellow triangles mean that the particular view-port has not been updated.
In the SketchUp model-panel [in the tray], there is an "Update" button [near the bottom] -or you can set the LO document to auto-update - which might slow things doen if the SKP is complex.
You must set up Scene-tabs in the SKP[s] and then use these in LO to display views of the model[s].
So... have you made and updated the Scene-tab[s] in the SKP[s] and saved the SKP[s], and the reloaded [updated] the SKP[s] into the LO doc ?
It may be it's simply warning you that there is some save/refresh/reload/updating to do

Philip, I assume you have changed to raster image of the model to either vector or hybrid. This happens quite a lot when updating the model.
Just change the reference view back to raster; update the reference file and then go back and change to vector or hybrid then see how you go...

Andrew, you don't have to change your viewports back to Raster before updating them. You can update them while using any of the three render modes.

Me too, mate!!!!

I find at times the render triangle 'hangs' and it only happens when I've changed to vector or hybrid. Quickest way to sort it out is to revert back to raster for a bit....
