      @circus please update your platform info here so we can help you better.

      ALso what format are you exporting to ? (There are separate libraries for each export file format.)

      I'm not here much anymore.

        Was hoping to export DWG, and import DWG. I have a commercial licences of SU8 pro in which I have been using importing and exporting DWG, I recently purchased(friday) a copy of 2013 edu, as I am currently studying and it does not give me any export options and limited import options? So iI am back on
        SU8, and Layout 2013? They seem to mixx o.k.

        P.

          Circus, it should definitely have those export/import functions. Have you tried reinstalling it?

            Drag and Drop of a picture or a sketchup file from the windows explorer to SU2013 doesn't work anymore. With Sketchup 8 it works fine. Did i miss something?

                    ok, i've had started Sketchup with administrative rights. Without admin rights drag and drop works also for me.

                          I figured it out - I had to play around with the OpenGL settings. Sketchup 2013 defaulted to 15 0x antialias whereas Sketchup 8 was using 40 4x.

                          Where did you change these settings...?

                          Cheers

                                I've set SU to "always run as admin" but still does not work for me. Win 8 and SU 2013 (Pro).

                                I guess I need to play around more...

                                  Running it 'as admin' will help with some issues...
                                  BUT remember that being an admin on PC does not guarantee you 'full access' to folders like Plugins, UNLESS you have also expressly changed the folder's default properties>security to be FULL...

                                    There doesn't appear to be any more options available for your graphic card. Laptop graphic cards tend to be more limited. What card do you have? And have you updated its drivers?

                                        Do you have more OpenGL options in SketchUp 8?

                                            hey Frederik

                                            you can try setting your AA via the ruby console.. enter this:

                                            Test.set_AA_method(4)

                                            it will probably echo back 0 meaning your AA was previously set to 0.. relaunch sketchup and it will be set to 4x (or whatever # you choose to enter in the console.)
