      If I select all, it says that i selected 7 entities, which are my 7 components in the model.
      I can share it if this can help.
      I don't know where to found layers, styles, model statistics, outliner, sorry -_-'

      EDIT : Found them, and my components are here, but can't be displayed πŸ˜•
      Why not ?
      Have you used Model Info > Statistic > Fix problems ?
      Are all Layers ON ?
      Is View > Hidden Geometry ON ?
      Are Guides set ON ?
      If you Zoom-extents what happens ?
      If you activate a Scene-tab what happens ?
      If you export the Model's Components [7] to a Collection and then edit each one of those SKPs in turn, fixing issues etc and erasing guides/points, and any rogue geometry far far from the origin etc... what happens ?
      Reload the Components one at a time into the problem SKP and see what happens ?
      Load the Components one at a time into an empty SKP and see what happens ?

        @Dave :

        I was moving a part when this happened so maybe it went 10000000 miles away, so yes.

        Zoom Extents get the origin (when I manage to get it) to the left middle.

        I can't post the file, it's 5.7 Mio and I can't post over 4 Mio

        @TIG

        Everything is on, but I'll try to add the components in an empty SKP

          Okay, I found the component which was causing trouble.

          I was adding the black notes to my piano model and I think a black note is causing trouble.
          Adding this particular component gives me the problem.

          If you can find a way to fix it, here is the model, if not, it's not that bad as I got my other components back.

            It looks to me as if you deleted all the geometry in the component while it was open for editing. That'll certainly cause you problems. I guess I'd start over.

              If you edit the piano component and select all entities, there are 826 entities:

              If you use the position camera tool, you get this eye height:

                Yeah, I don't know what happened ><

                Don't bother, the piano is the only thing I can rebuild without problem, as I have the measures.

                      At 9.35361e+049 inches
                      Something is @
                      1,476,264,204,545,454,550,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 miles
                      from the origin !
                      OR
                      ~25,112,920,5364,175,316,000,000,000,000,000,000 light-years
                      which is a LOT more than the diameter of the Milky Way Galaxy @
                      ~120,000 light-years
                      OR the observable Universe itself @
                      ~93,000,000,000 light-years
                      πŸ˜’
                      However, if you Select All, get the Component and then Explode it etc... then query the Edges in the model [there are only Faces and Edges in it] - for 'small' and 'large' we get this:
                      Sketchup.active_model.entities.grep(Sketchup::Edge).each{|e| p e.length.to_mm if e.length < 0.25.mm || e.length > 1500.mm} 0.0639867005970645 0.0639867005970814
                      The very tiny edges could cause issues but this suggests that some of them are simply far far away ?
                      This code finds just one culprit:
                      Sketchup.active_model.entities.grep(Sketchup::Edge).each{|e|p e.bounds.max if e.bounds.max.y > 10.m} Point3d(0.19685, 9.35361e+049, -1e+030)
                      So we can delete it thus:
                      Sketchup.active_model.entities.grep(Sketchup::Edge).each{|e|e.erase! if e.bounds.max.y > 10.m}
                      Then a Zoom-extents works... and all is well again ! 😍
                      A v8 of the fixed SKP is attached... πŸ˜„

                        That has to set a record for most distant geometry in SketchUp.
