I think I've finally had it with upgrades!

I might add - someone has changed the drop down menus and stuck them into one folder. I use two screens and have the program in one screen and the drop down menus on the other screen all open and lined up.

It appears I can't do that anymore!

John,

In regard to the dwg files. One looks like a dwg 2d graphic export and the other looks like dwg 3d model export, at least how these work on my machine.

[John Sayers]

Thank you phacot - i don't have that option in windows - either 2d graphic or section cut. These are 2D graphics.

Hi John,
is it possible to either load an example of the skp file here or on the warehouse (or another cloud server) with a reference to it.

With regards the new trays, they take a bit of getting use to, however they are well suited to a two screen setup once you have made a few unpinned custom ones to suit your workflow

Have you checked DWG export options?

Where is this? I don't have that under options. Is it different for windoews. And yes I have to choose 3d Model or 2d graphic, nothing about section cut.

Phillip, I too am having trouble getting used to the new trays, could you post a screen shot of how you have yours set up?

I've finally solved the problem with the kind help of Sketchup support.
It was hardware acceleration that was causing the problem that disappeared when I disabled hardware acceleration.

Thank you Ty.

by all means...

you can create different size trays and park them on the other screen, plus I have DC option placed too

you can leave the default or some pinned as well? but I find that the placed ones less annoying.

Ah I see, numerous trays on second monitor, will try that, thanks Phillip.

Philip I see you have Outliner always open, I used to have that until I noticed it was delaying plugins a lot. Don't you use plugins?

yes, there are significant delays whilst using a plugin, "rolling up" this dialog resolves this. At this stage I use the outliner a lot, so until this changes, I am quite happy to occasionally forget then roll it up.

Change in workflow sucks, but as a person involved in the beta testing I can tell you that we test it, make sure it isn't junk and report back. The trays were annoying me initially and now they are part of my workflow. Trimble has done a great job with SketchUp I have to say. Imagine if it went over to Autodesk!!!
