      Hi,
      Sometimes when switching to hybrid from raster, I get a washed out image.
      It isn't universal across all my scenes, usually just one or two out of ten or so in a file, but doesn't happen in every file I render in LO.
      I update my Styles and update the scene and save, but no luck.
      It seems there is some corruption in the SU file sceneHybrid.PNG that this occurs in.
      I'm using SU 2013 but it happened in earlier versions of SU/LO as well.
      Attached is a screen capture of the raster and then hybrid output.
      Any ideas other than using Raster which I don't want to do because the quality is much lower?
      BTW, tried Vector and same result as Hybrid.
      Thanks,
      Stuart

          The line weight profile is set to "1" in Shaded and Textures. No other boxes are checked.

            I think Frederick was referring to Lineweight in the SketchUp inspector within LayOut. (under the Styles tab).

            Why are the faces in the toe kick area reversed?

              Line wt in sketchup inspector is .20, though I tried in .50 and same result.
              Regarding reversed faces, I just didn't correct the orientation in SU before sending to LO.
              As I said, it is only this particular scene that is giving me a problem. All the other scenes render perfectly in .20 line wt and that is what I always use and have done hundreds of scenes this way.Thanks.

                Humor me, then. Try setting the line weight to 1.0 and see what you get.

                Does the scene shows as [modified] in the Inspector?

                  The scene shows as "Shaded with Textures" and not modified.
                  It took close to 15 minutes to go from raster to hybrid.
                  Line wt 1 pts.-same result.
                  Why just one scene? In the same model a similar scene renders in 30 sec.
                  Thanks.

                    If the scene is modified it would show as [modified] in the scene name in the SketchUp inspector.

                    My inclination would be to delete that viewport from LO and put it in again. Make sure it doesn't show as modified and render it as Hybrid.

                    Which version of LO? How about updating your profile so we have some clue as to what you are using?

                      Dave,
                      Updated my profile-thanks.
                      Scene is not [modified].
                      Deleted scene in SU and section cut.
                      Re-created scene in SU and renamed.
                      Deleted viewport in LO.
                      Re-rendered in new viewport.
                      Same results.
                      Yikes.

                        Would you be willing to send me the LO file? I'll take a look and see if I can see something that we're missing. Send it by PM.

                          Hi Dave,
                          Thanks for all you help!
                          The file is 23mb.
                          Don't you need the SU file too?
                          I can't figure out how to PM from site.
                          I can send to you via dropbox.
                          Thanks,
                          Stuart

                            Yes. It's too big to send in a PM. DropBox will be fine. The LO file contains the SU file so I only need the LO file.

                              Dave,
                              How do you want me to contact you with dropbox folder?

                                A link in a PM will be fine.
