              Sometimes I am getting crashes when I do a File > New.

              I noticed that one a SketchyPhysics dialogs is automatically loaded with the new file (even if I manually closed all toolbars/dialogs prior to doing a File > New) and that seems cause the crash.

                You can make the dialog not show up by closing with the UI button rather than just closing the window. Unfortunately I cant reliably detect the window closing.

                The crash is concerning. I tried doing a bunch of file->new's with the window open and could not reproduce it. Are there any other details about it you can tell me?

                  No luck repeating the crashes.

                  Pretty sure it had to do with trying to close the SketchyPhysics Inspector window after opening existing models (some were sketchy physics models and others were not).

                  I did notice if I had the Outliner Window open it would go nuts when Play/Pause button was pressed and the Inspector title bar would show a "Not Responding" message for a while, but it didn't crash SU.

                    Iv'e noticed that having the outliner open makes my own rubies slow to a crawl. Of course I'm adding and deleting a lot of comp insts, so the outliner is struggling to keep up with that. I just warn my users not to use it when running my scripts. CB.

                      Yes that's quite important - the Outliner (when open) tries to keep itself updated.

                        Too bad. Well if it happens again let me know.

                        I did notice if I had the Outliner Window open it would go nuts when Play/Pause button was pressed and the Inspector title bar would show a "Not Responding" message for a while, but it didn't crash SU.

                        Sorry I cant fix this. Its in Sketchups code. ๐Ÿ˜ž Hopefully a future version will fix it.

                            Search for "SketchyPhysics" on 3d warehouse. There are tons of models.

                            Oscillator joint was replaced by a setting in piston. Magnet doesn't work yet.
