      OK....

      then we need TIG or Thomthom to bail us out.

      I know for a fact that there's a snippet for this.

          OpenGL settings on the Mac OS X version of SketchUp are different than on Windows, but you should be able to get something nice to look at on either platform. It looks to me a little like you're not running your display at its native resolution, but I can't be sure. Typically, the Mac OS picks a pretty reasonable setting for you- you may (however) want to try forcing FSAA (Full Screen Anti-Aliasing) 'On' manually if you don't like the default appearance.

          CAUTION: This is an undocumented hack that isn't habitually tested by our QA teamโ€“ though it may give you the 'look' you're after, it may cause unexpected issues elsewhere in the application.

          1. Choose "Window > Ruby Console" to open the Ruby Console

          2. type the following into the console:

            Test.set_AA_method(4)

          ...and hit Return.
          3. The console should echo back to you something like:

          0
          

          ...indicating the previous anti-aliasing setting was "0x"

          1. Quit SketchUp and restart. All SketchUp windows will now have 4x anti-aliasing enabled.

          Hope this helps- and remember: this isn't guranteed to work on all Macintosh models.

            tells you what it's set at...

            Test.get_AA_method
            

            will set it to 4 [ choices 0,1,2,3,4 ]

            Test.set_AA_method(4)
            

            v2013 sets it at 4
            v2014 sets it at 0, due to some performance issues on some machines, I believe...

            sorry I'm not TIG or TT

                          you can remove the whole OGL key of SU v2014 from the Windows registry by executing the attached REG file (see archive).

                          Exit SU before doing this, launching SU then the OGL defaults should be restored.

                          hth,
                          Norbert


                          SU v2014 only
