    try if installing the Windows runtime libraries required by SU v2016/2017 again helps: • Microsoft .NET Framework v4.5.2+ • Microsoft Visual C++ Redist. 2015 • Microsoft Universal C Runtime Update f. Win 7/8.x always run these installers (as well as the SU setup) by "r-click > Run as Admin".

    Thank you. I guess when I do want to erase specific lines, I don't find it to be a problem. Since I do most of this sort of work on my PC at home, I'm using Paint.NET as my image editor but I have PS on my work computer and PSE on my MacBook Pro. The process is the same. I don't often find a need to erase overlapping edges. The thick ones mask the thin ones anyhow. Well, except in some sketchy styles but those tend to have really loose lines and having multiple lines generally works. [image: 13189648465_a36b29b396_b.jpg]

    @dave r said: This is typical of a graphics card issue. If you search the forum for 'wireframe', you'll find other reports. What version of SketchUp is she using? If SU2016 or older, turning off Hardware Acceleration in Preferences>OpenGL will probably take care of it. What is the graphics card? She should make sure the drivers are up to date. Thanks you for your help!

    @rocketron1 said: Looking at the installing tutorial on the Sketchucation site, it seems it is directed to an older version than 2017. Please provide me the proper directions for installation with Sketchup Pro 2017. Thank you, Ron Unlike all previous SketchUp versions, v2017 changed the installation process slightly - and of course this applies to ALL RBZ installations - not just SCF's... To install ANY Extension's RBZ, in v2017 you need to do the following... [ Note this is now exactly the same in PC & MAC ! ] Use Sketchup, menu Window > Extension Manager - then use the dialog's red-button to 'Install Extension'... Find the RBZ, and select it to install it - answering in the affirmative at any prompt dialogs... Installation done

    @pixero said: The great thing is that you can scale a selected object or image without rescaling the entire SU scene. That was true before the change to having to use ctrl. I have often built up a scene by building part of it and then bringing in a photo containing a dimensioned line drawing then scaling it to "real" size: the rest of the models in the scene were not affected by the rescaling of the picture.

    @pmolson said: Question 1. Do you actually use a 4k yourself? nope and surely won't because to much strain to the eyes, but click on "etc." above for further info concerning this issue. @pmolson said: Question 2. Wondering if i run two displays... wouldn't recommend multi-monitor setups because regularly difficult with OpenGL-based 3D applications and also may mix up toolbar positions etc. because of negative screen coordinates if e.g. monitor #2 is placed left from the main monitor #1. @pmolson said: Question 3. Any Idea when sketchup will support 4k displays? nope but obviously not before SU v2018 not avail before roughly end of this year... if included. in short, don't try this @ home

    @charevir56 said: If I understood what you are after, I will do this way: uncheck the shadows setting in axonometric scenes scene with the shadow setting: before set the shadows setting turn off all layer and set day/time/light/dark/... and check all setting. Every time you select this scene your working area will be cleaned. But if you want to use this scene to add the shadows to the current view of one of your axonometric scene, Set the shadows setting and uncheck Camera position and visible layer. In 1st cases when you update the shadows setting you won't see anything, but when you select one of your axonometric scenes they'll show the shadows setting. In 2nd case the shadow scene will add the shadows to the current scene In the same way you can create a scene to clean the shadows: turn off the shadow and check all setting but the visible layer. This scene will turn off the shadow in wherever scene Is selected. Attached file Sorry for my English. thanks, charevir. your English may not be perfect but the explanation is very clear! I have always being able to set this up but then could not all of a sudden. go figure that. the file helps a lot too. I am sure others will benefit from your explanation. best regards.

    Riccardo, Perhaps see this thread: (sdmitch was gracious to private message me a custom solution for my needs) http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?f=323%26amp;t=57803 Perhaps sdmitch will see this thread, and allow or share the same plug-in for you, as I think this may be what you need to sort out your lmported model layers. (Maybe pm him?) Charlie

    did you have installed under another user account than the used one? Try if running SU by "r-click > Run as Admin" once helps already.

    For clean walls use Fredo Tool for see the false segments! (Mark Vertices) So erase the 3 false long segments and redraw them Then Make face (with the 2 "red lines") Then Extrude by Push Pull! Et voilà! Ps Kill the Guide points! [image: FkeI_false_walls.jpg]

    Probably good advice! I always think there's some new whiz bang feature that I can't live without... @pilou said: @unknownuser said: Maybe I just go back to 2016, not near as many issues there. Why change something that works fine ? Keep old version(s) is a good habit!

    I found a useful plugin from TIG: http://sketchucation.com/pluginstore?pln=TIG_save_all_components. (before doing this, use the purge plugin!) For now this works well. And in Layout I automated the date and drawingnr., this saves me already a tiny bit of time. Also the generate report function in Sketchup is now useful for me to make BOMs. Is there a possibility to use the model info (. skep model) to put it in a text field in layout (such as name and description)? Or is this a wish list thing? And I always select vector rendering and background of, is it possible to set this as default Or is this still wishlist?
