Styles wont work Sketchup Pro 2013
-
Hi
I purchased Sketchup Pro for work
We work on Windows 7 enterprise. The administrator allowed me to install Sketchup.
Everything works except styles and materials pallettes.
I have re installed severaltimes, deleting Sketchup directory, but same problem persists.
the error message saysEg “Error Loading File C:\Program Files\Sketchup\SchetchUp2013\Styles\Sketchy Edges\Airbrush with Endpoints.style”
any help on this is appreciated
Thanks

The path
C:\Program Files\Sketchup\SchetchUp2013\Styles\Sketchy Edges\Airbrush with Endpoints.style
is probably a folder/file which has limited access rights for ordinary users - can your IT guys give you better permissions ?
Also get them to check that.style
and.skm
are not being blocked by the firewall - these are in effect.zip
files renamed with an alternative filetype suffix, so they might be perceived as a security risk ?It is possible to have 'collections' of Styles, Materials and Components in folders within your own 'user' area on your PC, where you have FULL permissions to add/use those files...
You can link those into SketchUp as custom collections...
Then you [or IT] could move all of these 'protected' files out of the 'Program FIles
' path to your own user equivalent...
Although, of course each user on that PC would need their own collections setup ? -
Hi thanks for this TIG, I'll give it go Monday and report back
cheers
