There's been some reports with the older BuildEdge Plan about instability and clashes with other plugins - has any of this been addressed in this new version?
(I've not used BuildEdge Plan myself - but I've been helping out people with various issues, and observed several threads.) I think TIG found an issues with BE and one of this plugins.

Apparently our plugin is causing problems with a know issue in SketchUp (something about observers). Our developers are on this right now. Hopefully we can figure a solution and roll out a fix quickly!

Hi all,

So over in another area of the forum it has been revealed that there was a bug in SketchUp related to materials and observers. It looks like they will be fixing it in the near future.

We have been looking into this an working directly with SketchUp in an effort to get this fixed the right way (as opposed to us creating a monster of a solution to get around the problem). It is great to see that they are on it!

Thanks!
Aaron

Now we will see if Trimble's idea of "On It" is the same as Google's.
