Who said anything about it doing anything different. That is the new one, though. CADFather, what're you smoking?

check out the new orbit tool icon.. you don't even have to press the mouse wheel..

I'm confused, I don't know if he's joking any more ^^

Dave R

I think he's on drugs.

CadFather

yes, sorry for hijacking the thread but Dave is right - smoking sketchup has been my substance of choice for the last 10 years - and still get that 'high' feeling...

This is a huge and unexpected release!
The new version was announced for this autumn!
Anyway, I am so glad and I'm gonna test it tomorrow, hope the free version will have
line weight, if not, maybe next time.

I have just had a quick play around with 2013, apart from the icons ( which are less visible than before for some reason) could anyone please tell me if anything has improved. It seems very much the same except for the extension warehouse which we already have here

thanks

I downloaded it but it is a .dmg not a .exe????
There was no choice offered for Win or Mac, Maker or Pro

CadFather

i think that's the main bulk - there are other minor improvements/fixes but nothing really major. feels a bit more stable with some of my biggest models. layout also feels a lot more solid and faster... it's also a move to provide a different layout and hopefully set the stage for further new developments - i'm missing some of those old days sketchup surprises (still remember when they came up with a follow me tool hidden in the tools menu!) ...right now most of the changes that at least i'd like to see are in the wish list...

warning
Custom Toolbars ruby by **Jim**will not load the existing
neither the SketchUp fullscreen ruby from Anton_S will work properly ,
As far as I have investigated .
I keep saving files in SKETCHUP 8 version just in case

CadFather

yes, hopefully Anton can fix it for this version - also, Aerilius toolbar editor, works better in 2013 than in SU8. opening is somewhat slow but the toolbars keep their positions
