so how long has it been since the release of 7.0
now 7.1 is released just to get things (not quite) to where 7.0 should have been and everyone seems ready to bow to the google gods 
I think not! there are many scripters here that single handedly double the value of SU, FOR FREE. i bow only to them. THANKYOU scripters, without you i would break my SU CD into 50 pieces and flush it down the toilet. until SU developers put every function that the scripters have added, into the core program, they will get NO respect from me.
juggling toolbars... rediculous... shameful.

You can download dxf/dwg plugin from the Google site.
I know, but this won't be available for the "next major upgrade", so keeping a copy of v6 for then may be wise.

Well, Reset workspace, did nothing for me.

Or the current release with this plugin.

Reset workspace (unfortunately) won't do anything with screwed up toolbars - it's only for "lost dialogs" that went off-screen for any reason.

My point as well. Why not keep 7.x as it is faster.

I really noticed the speed increase, especially with textures on. Seems strange they didn't do this before

It does take time you know.

Finally Sketchup 7.1. Ok. Anybody knows a roadmap for the release of the 8.0?

Nope, no news about the release of 8. (i doubt even google know when they're going to release
-
I think 7 is a lucky number (another big company experienced this recently). I'm just waiting for Google7
I think the 7**.1** was because the Sketchup team has spend much time this year for big projects, but not enough "new features" for a major version. The new 3d-pipeline in 3d-warehouse, the new rendering engine and the better collada exporter were big changes under the hood and did not leave time for something else. I could imagine that the next release will be even more overwhelming.

Yeah, I know... to be honest, I'm surprised, I wasn't expecting a performance boost until SU8; then again, I wasn't expecting 7.1. The Collada import/export is great anyway, for when the warehouse just won't do

Personally I think the speed increase is most welcome, I've downloaded but have to install still. I'm not too fussed with the other improvements, might start using LayOut some more now... Can't wait for a 64-bit version to hit the market though, would REALLY make my day. Anybody know if the shadow bug is still present? Mind you, with the rendering engine re-write this problem might be something of the past in the near future!

Disappointingly the shadow bug is still there. AFAIK mending it is more a legal than a technical issue, there is some aggressively maintained patent where the fix ix owned fy someone who does not want to license it.

Found this http://sketchup.google.com/support/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=94927
They're actively working on solutions and hope there may be a fix in a future release.

A 64 bit version probably wouldnt be as good as you think, as the only real advantage would be in exporting large models/images/stuff where a lot of memory is needed. Other than that you may even get a slight decrease in speed.

I wounder how long it will take for an intense SU user to use up the current speed increase ?-)
-
It has halted several times already with only 4,900 trees in the scene.

Only 4,900! Damn useless application. I must write a strong letter to Google
