      Today I got the proof and I have an image to prove it.
      SketchUp ran out of memory.
      Out of memory.

        Tell us about your file, the size and scope, your machine specs, and the environment in which it happened. What else did you have open, what do you run in the background.

        Not arguing, just interested. We all know SketchUp has it's limitations, it's nice to know where they are.

          I have had SU run out of memory before. Only this time I took a screenshot of the popup. ๐Ÿ˜‰
          Scene file was 22 MB so it wasn't a big one. Before I have splats with files the size of 150-250 MB.

          Windows 7 64bit with 24GB ram. The only thing running in background was Notes.
          Had run purge model so nothing unused was in the file.

            Wow... 22 megs is really small. What was going on when you had it? Were you doing some crazy command?

              That's a coincidence...first time in over 7 years of Sketchup use: same problem.

              Just imported a terrain mesh (.obj 114 Mb, SU file 227 Mb). Picked mesh and wanted to move to origin...circle of death appears and enter popup.

              Win7 X64, 8Gb of memory, 3Gb still available, picasa and streaming radio running in background.

                Do you have any idea what SU really needs vs just throwing out a number?;
                Do you know how many auto runs you are running?;
                Do you know what processes were at the time?;
                Do you know the memory manager does not allow any app( except in very special cases) to have direct access to memory? It is like a DMA approach ( or was have not checked on W7 ) and is only allocated in chunks called working sets based on other users. Maybe it is not a SU issue but a memory manager issue and I would think Trimble would be asking some help form MS, defrag or who ever if it is.
                From above posting what is Trimble / MS doing if anything?

                  Wow, cool down a bit.
                  I'm sure you haven't missed the long wishes for SU to be able to handle more complex scenes versus Trimbles "Why do you need 64bit? SketchUp doesn't run out of memory."
                  For me I t was just a funny thing seeing that popup clearly stating that SU in fact did run out of memory.
                  As has happened to me before.
                  I really don't care if SU is 64 bit or not.
                  What I do care about is SU in its current state not being able to handle normal projects without lots of workarounds.

                  Maybe this should have been posted in the corner bar.

                    all reason aside, users look at things like this and think "there's definitely something weird going on here."

                        I actually got the same message on one of my SU models.

                        Something must be wrong somewhere.

                            I agree and only point I was trying to make, and not very well , is the SU report maybe pointing to something different. All it may be saying is I(SU) asked for some memory but did not get it ๐Ÿ˜ฒ There are many different flavors( in terms of priority of the request) of memory a program can ask for and just saying it does not get what was requested does not mean it needs 64 bits.
                            BTW even if SU was given 64 bits and the others listed here does not mean they did or can run regression test to prove their system. If you look at some of the SKU limits Microsoft puts on some of their releases most do not even come close to the 64 bit terra bite limit . The reason was my understanding they do not have the test capability to adequately test such a large system and showing a big long list of those who claim 64 may be misleading although I have not done search recently.
                            In addition many users have been operating with systems bigger than 32 bits for a long time and never once have I seen a posting about that issue. Font side bus on some mother boards have operated above the 32 bit and only get throttled down at the memory interface.

                              ha. I play chess for about 4 months every two years then I have to quit cold turkey because the whole world, and my dreams, start looking like one big chess board.. I'm on the wagon at the moment.
                              I'll hit you up when I fall back off.

                                  so chess is 32 bit, that is 16 bits each side, so is Go game 64?,
