    In a couple of years I'll tell you you can dock them at the bottom too.

        I must say I'm a bit miffed that vista isn't supported. Having to buy a new OS is ridiculous.

          One thing that's a bit annoying with 2015 is that they switched position for "Create" and "Cancel" buttons in the Create Component box.

          I don't know how many times I have hit "Cancel" when I meant to hit "Create".

          Wonder why they did that. Can't think of any advantage to doing it.

          Oh, well, I'm still very, extremely pleased with 2015.

            It's been that way since SU2013, anyway. I never noticed because I use the Enter key instead of clicking on the button. Hit G, type the component name and hit Enter or hit G followed by Enter if I don't need to make a name for it.

              You mean if just hit Enter it will create the component?

              Either way, it's no big deal. I'm using 2014 for all my modeling now, so I'll get used to it. Small price to pay.

              Thanks Dave

                It's pretty much just like any other Windows thing. If the button is highlighted, hitting Enter is as good as clicking on it.

                  But I've grown used to the way I'm doing things in SU, and learning new tricks is so painful, I'll just continue to plod along. Old dog, new tricks......

                        They probably changed it because a Mac guy made it first... They do everything backwards. If you notice on SCF when you click on an image the X is on the left instead of the right. I just know it was a Mac user who made it that way. πŸ˜‰

                                  How does everyone do the upgrade?

                                  1. Copy plugins folder and hope nothing breaks (Sketcucation plugin store does)
                                  2. Download all the plugins again?

                                      Thanks, although I'm still having massive issues with performance.

                                      Anyone else running SU2015 with a Quadro card?

                                      2014 Sketchup is very fast but 2015 the framerate drops below 1fps when dragging the window around or tumbling through a model. I can't see it being my graphics card since 2014 is fine.

                                      Anyone else with a Quadro having issues?

                                        Other Quadros have mentioned issues... Are you up to date on drivers?

                                          Yes, the very latest clean install from nVidia - it looks like is an issue with SU2015 only because 3DS Max, SU2014 and other 3d programs fly on this card.

                                          It seems that "Software mode" in SU2015 is actually faster than using hardware acceleration. I'll try and log a bug but I don't have a licence for SU2015 yet (needed when filling out the form). Does anyone know how I can send details/info the SU devs?

                                          Edit: figured it out, After turning on Software mode, closing the program, then opening SU2015 again and turning back on hardware acceleration it seems that it is fast again. I can only assume it must've been doing some really high AA before as it looks like its okay now as it forced a rest in the settings somewhere. Hopefully this can help anyone if they run into the same issue.
