      OK, I know this is unlikely to get anywhere but here goes my 10 pence worth.

      1. Clipping is a pita, is it possible to come up with a proper fix that we can all use to make it easier to zoom in to the smaller parts of models?

      2. Zoom issues, is it likely that a fix can be made so zoom origin is locked to the model worked on at the time of zooming? I am aware the biggest problem here is that with an infinite workplane, the mouse will often lock on to a point way off the current focus. This will also improve the rotate around model feature and prevent this being a problem.

      3. 64 bit code. The usual reason applies here, issues of sketchup crashing the (usually) rendering program when a larger render is under way.

      4. Arcs, curves, whatever you want to call them they have a habit of degenerating to lines which is a pain in the arris, can it be arranged so that this does not happen? If exploding a group or component it would be nice also, to chose whether curves are degenerated or left complete.

      I am not saying these things to p155 folk off, I am trying to make suggestions to improve the product only. Please do not be over sensitive but instead take the requests on their merit. Thanks.

      1. Can we please have some more in depth cad tools with sketchup, an example is a good loft tool. I know there are ruby's out there but it would be nice if we could have some more cad tools of a higher standard that do not have to be tagged on like washing on a line. More consistency would help too.

        Hi, Mike:
        There are many here among us with similar wishes. See that Search box up there by the chair mesh? Type in "wishlist", click Search. There are 56 pages.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          Hi,

          I am aware that folk have wishes along similar lines, I just decided to stick my ten pence worth on the page in case someone is reading these missives. Perhaps if enough of us say this enough times, we might get somewhere.

          Yes, unlikely but worth a short as all it costs me is a little time.

            Well, I've been told that Google Sketchup developers monitor this forum 😉
            They don't always respond, and this could mean a couple of things: Your wishes will come true in later versions, or,(perish this thought)it is not the direction they want this program to go in.

            I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

              Call me a cynic but, the problem is not just google sketchup developers. Just about every company out there will take the wishes of their marketing department/group over users EVERY day of the week. One direction in which software is developed, just not for the better of the (should be) major interest group (users).
