      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.

                Ah ha! It is the distant geometry thing.

                  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.

                              I believe that are not his plugins that are not up to speed, but the universe we use them in .
