'Whack-a-Mole' Hell in the MacOS X Outliner
-
Anyone still getting this -- especially on complex models?
Disclosure triangles spontaneously expanding and collapsing, click on one item, the damn thing jumps and selects a random group, Entering groups with a single click...
I flagged this on the beta forum, and they said thay'd fixed it -- they haven't.
It makes working on complex models sheer hell, frustration and--most importantly--it wastes my time.

Are you still using v. 7.0 (as your profile says)?

I was thinking the same thing.
I have very little problems with SU 7.1(.6859) and Mac 10.5 & 6

Please see the linked video.
Please note:
This is only a sub-set of the strange behaviour.
I DO have a SnapzPro licence, but every time I log in / out or upgrade the OS, it forgets it. I hate Ambrosia Software.
I haven't quite got the hang of the annotations system yet.

The jumping around I've seen but not the random open/close of subsections. Unless what you're seeing might be explained by you clicking to open a subsection and then clicking where you think an item should be but the system actually deciding to jump the list and treat your click as happening on the item that is now wrongly in the place where your pointer was... that I've seen, many times.

What? I didn't actually link the linked video? What an arse.
Oh, well... here it is:

Tim --
What you're describing is definitely one of the odd behaviours that I'm getting, but not the specific one in the linked video.

'outliner'? It looks like Windose explorer to me! What's explorer doing inside SketchUp OSX? (Sorry I've never come across this before)
(and yes Snapz Pro, well isn't very Pro and is rather wack! I've got WireTap Pro. which although is much better than it used to be, it's still annoying- as i have to open the main application up to extract anything- export just doesn't work, or exports as a mov file, which is completely useless, but then this is another story and is OT!)

Actually, Tom you could use http://www.screentoaster.com for video capture.
It's free, but it had a slight glitch when I was creating that screen capture, so I had to fall back on SnapzPro.
