      Hi all,

      I was wondering if someone else ever experienced the same problem that I'm have been dealing with for a long time. I made my local collection of components. I added this folder to my favorites. But for some reason, some of the SketchUp files in the linked folder display incorrect names. For example: A component SketchUp file in my collection is named: Window 1x2m. This is it's saved filename on the pc. Yet for some reason when I'm in my component browser searching for the particular component in my favorite collection, it doesn't show this given name. Instead it's named Component#3 (like the standard name SU gives newly made components). Note that it only happens on some components. Others display the correct name that I've given them. Is there someone who's had the same problem and might know the solution? I'm working with SU pro 2016. One thing that might be important to mention is that I do know some components are made or edited from 'old' componentfiles. And by old I mean, components that were once made in SU 7 or earlier. Could this be related to the problem?
