      Does anyone know of a preview utility for Mac OS which allows quick preview of Sketchup images in a folder?

      I really could use one .....

      Thanks

        no utility, but the GraphicConverter show Sketchup files.
        Or try out XnView for Mac, not sure if it is implemented yet.

          XnView still has problems in its Mac incarnation, however, the Graphic Converter does the trick perfectly ..... and it's packed with other useful stuff too. I could easily see it becoming my default viewer and image management app. Thanks for the pointer. β˜€

            Ok, so another pointer: You can drag and drop images and objects out of the GraphicConverter into your scene.
            Images sticks automaticly at the cursor with the scale tool.

              Sorry to slow replying to this but I haven't checked in for quite a while .... busy. Yes I discovered that quite by chance. Very useful! I think I am almost certainly going to buy this app - it's very reasonably priced and it seems pretty solid. Thanks again for pointing me at it.

                  I was trying to work out how to write a 64bit shell extension - but the C stuff is just beyond me.
