      Hello All,
      I am new to Sketchup and even newer to this forum. I am having trouble exporting an animation. I have a simple nightstand and have created three scenes that rotate around it. Then I click on export animation and nothing happens. There is no dialogue box that pops up.

      What am I missing/not doing right?

      Sincerely,
      Chris Kearney

        Hi Chris,

        I do not know what you are doing wrong but when I "clicked" to export animation, this came out of the export (not a great quality but with just quick, basic settings)

          Yeah, that was what I was trying to do. A quick movie that moves around a piece of furniture to send to clients. Thank you Gaia.

          Does anyone have any idea why the export animation window does not open? Are there plugins that you need to utilize this function as well as the export 3D model? Is it possible that something did not load when sketchup pro was installed? What other recourse is there?

          Chris

            Hi Chris,

            I am not on a Mac so cannot tell what else could prevent the export dialog to open - other than maybe a faulty installation. Maybe that's the cause indeed so you could try to fix it by reinstalling SU (also download a fresh version as your previous one may have been incomplete).

            Also,there was a second fixed 7.1 version for Mac only - Windows users did not get this patch - I do not know if you have installed that already.

              Once in a while, after a flurry of activity, a dialogue box is minimized, and or hidden, and or off to the side, etc.
