Sketchup 13 undo bug

eddie · 21 Feb 2014, 21:51

Dave R. When my deadlines slow down a little bit i might try and reinstall the windows updates to see if it happens again, and ill try temporarily disabling the plugins folder if it does, but for now i cant spare the time to trouble shoot. I will also try and remove any outdated plugins that might be causing conflicts to.

but so far rolling back the windows updates seems to be working...

Undo

OK for me if all plugins were removed.
SU pro 2013
Which one???
Maybe one of them is holding memory space.

Put half of them back and see if the problem occurs again. If so, it's in the half you put back. If not it's in the other half. Problem is, it could be a couple of plugins fighting each other.

Hi Y'all
I think Ive found the dirty devil.
BG Sketchup Component Manager

You will have to reload to make the fix after killing the plug.
Anyway this fixed the undo for me.

I have the problem and do not have BG Sketchup Component Manager installed.

If it's "Undo Add Layer Observer", it's related to Layers Panel. I fixed it and will soon release an update.
As for "Undo Properties", it's not Layers Panel. But it's a generic name, it happens when a plugin doesn't give names to its operations.

I have the problem and do not have BG Sketchup Component Manager installed.

I have deactivated it and the problem persists... now is is even happening when I have just started Sketchup with an empty file and have not yet done anything. Seems I have to test my plugins one by one to find out which is responsible.

Re-read the post right above yours Pherim. Jiminy suggests it is also possible that it might be his plugin - Layer Panel. Check to see if you have that installed.

TT also found a bug that produces "Undo properties" in some cases with Layers Panel. I'll publish a fix soon.

Pherim · 5 Mar 2014, 21:10

One question, is it enough to disable the plugin in the plugins/extension manager of the Plugin Store? I did this first and it still appeared directly after starting Sketchup, but when I played around a little with various tools it did not seem to happen again. I don't know if it was Component Manager or Layers Panel, still have to test that and see if it really is gone now.

The bug should be fixed in version 1.0.1

I had the same problem, and found that it was Vray 1.49. but now the undo command undoes two or three steps not just one. so I'm constantly having to repeat things.

It is very annoying.

looks like uninstalling the component manager did it for me...so far. Took a while to find though since it was called BGScomposants...

Thanks for all your help everyone!

After a day of struggle of trying to work precisely knowing there's no undo available .. I finally found the culprit (in my situation)- It's the luxrender plugin that I installed few days ago.

IMHO, I think the cause will vary (I use Sketchup 8), so as a tip, I suggest to always log or remember the plugins that you install so it's easier to spot the troublemaker .

Im using version 1.2 & still get the problem where Undo does not work. It just gives you "undo properties" and does nothing.

jiminy-billy-bob · 18 Sept 2014, 11:39

Are you 100% sure it's caused by Layers Panel?

Glenn at home · 18 Sept 2014, 12:42

I also had this problem as well and did have the Lux plugins installed. I have removed them and I think it has fixed the problem on my end.
