      hello, i am new to sketchup, and its a great program, i have almost finished modelling my house after three weeks of modeling and learning.

      I have never used layers before in sketchup, and i tried it today, but whenever i click over a layer name, a strange beeping sound comes from my compuuter even when the volume is off.
      what is it?

      well, thank you very much!

      i am using sketchup 7 now.

        salsainglesa,

        I seem to recall that this awkward-sounding beep was due to a ruby plugin. The plugin was calling the "UI.beep" function. I've searched, and found that's the case with the following plugins:

        ContourMaker.rb
        CutListAndMaterials.rb
        Linetool.rb
        Ldraw.rb
        Multiwalltool.rb
        PurgeAll.rb
        SectionCutFace.rb
        Slicer.rb
        Slicer3.rb
        Ultiwalltool.rb
        VolumeCalculator.rb
        ZVolume.rb

        The culprit would have to have something to do with the layers (obviously,) but I haven't poked around in the above plugins to see if any of these access layers. All I can remember is that it had to do with an "older" plugin.

        I did find the following discussion, but it's unclear whether the issue was resolved to the poster's satisfaction:

        Perhaps someone else recalls the discussion to which I'm referring?
