            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...?

                      However, I'm still puzzled...
                      Where do I apply the new settings...
                      This is what it looks like on my laptop...

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

                        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?

                              It's an old laptop with a ATI Mobility Radeon HD 3650 card...
                              And yes - I have the latest drivers installed...

                              Similar to the original question, I also seem to have a better antialising when using SU 8 Pro... 😐

                                Do you have more OpenGL options in SketchUp 8?

                                    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.)

                                        that's an old hack. i think it is on the su forums.

                                          you're more inclined to seek out a workaround 😉..
