      Do you have more OpenGL options in SketchUp 8?

          There doesn't appear to be any more options available for your graphic card. Laptop graphic cards tend to be more limited. What card do you have? And have you updated its drivers?

          It's an old laptop with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 card...
          And yes - I have the latest drivers installed...

          Similar to the original question, I also seem to have a better antialising when using SU 8 Pro... 😐

          hey Frederik

          you can try setting your AA via the ruby console.. enter this:

          Test.set_AA_method(4)

          it will probably echo back 0 meaning your AA was previously set to 0.. relaunch sketchup and it will be set to 4x (or whatever # you choose to enter in the console.)

              that's an old hack. i think it is on the su forums.

                well, when your openGL prefs look like this:

                you're more inclined to seek out a workaround πŸ˜‰..

                    These are my settings in SU 8...
                    SU8-Sys-pref-OpenGL.jpg
                    SU8-Sys-pref-OpenGL-details.jpg
                    The "Use hardware acceleration" is by default ticked in SU2013, while it's not ticked in SU8...
                    Furthermore there's a difference in the detail window... 😐

                    Thanks to everyone... I will give the hack a try... πŸ˜„

                    In a few weeks I'll get a new computer, so I guess I will just leave it here...

                          What happened to the WalkThrough Toolbar? Walk, Look Around and Position Camera. The commands are still there in the drop down, but the toolbar is gone? I liked that toolbar damnit!

                            Do you mean the one called Camera? Ah I see now, they have combined walkthrough with other tools.
                            Edit, so you can make your own now if you just want the small walkthrough tools.

                              Oh... So I need to move them from the large tool set where ever I want. Ok. I can do that.

                              I see what you meant. They added it to the camera toolbar.

                              So my Wallet is not gone... 🀣

                                  Wow, that's interesting. Should've known some years ago..πŸ˜’ However on Retina displays Anti Aliasing has become irrelevant (in both CAD and Games applications). In fact it looks better now with the setting "0"..

                                      Is it this one?
                                      http://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/grid-tool

                                      Think I have that installed - not seen any errors though.

                                        thanks...that was the one. I do not recall installing it but after installing it now no more error report.
