OSX Yosemite is coming...Problems?
-
All my OSX upgrades over the years went smoothly with no problems except Mavericks, and that wrinkle was minor. For some reason it failed to recognize mt wi-fi modem (a Linksys). Nothing I could do could fix it as it seemed to be an issue of compatibility. In the end I got myself an Airport Express and problem solved.
Recently I upgraded to iOs8 for my iPad 2 and I find it's a bit wonky in overall perfprmance. I think it's a touch slower in response than iOs7 and Safari can be slow and unresponsive at times. Obviously bugs that need to be fixed.
None of this has anything to do with Yosemite, but based on what others have said here I'll wait before upgrading.

does maximise make SU use Full Screen mode, or is that just me?
I do use my own nib and have had Full Screen mode since v7, but it was always a separate right hand side pair of arrows...

johnMaximize in Yosemite can be controlled: Click the green button and you'll get OS X Fullscreen mode on any app, by default. If you hold down Option while clicking the green button, you get the more familiar Maximize window, while leaving the Menus visible.

cheers,
I literally found that three clicks before you posted.lol
so does SU go full screen now?

I believe that the outliner crash only happens if there are "hidden" components/groups.

Weird, but at least you got it sorted. Thanks for the update

hmm.. are you sure about that?
my understanding is that the full screen icon which used to be at the top right has been moved to the green button.. if you push option, it changes to the old + (zoom)..
but, the application needs to be coded as a full screen application in order for it to go full screen.. sketchup isn't a full screen app..
or are you saying that you can make sketchup full screen? (john's example doesn't count.. he's a tinkerer

I'm going to tread softly with regard to upgrading to Yosemite until all the wrinkles are ironed out.
remember apple started doing a public beta with the operating system this year.. so a lot of the wrinkles are already ironed out..
i welcome the public beta if they're going to continue doing yearly releases of the OS.. otherwise, it's wait til .2 or .3... then by that time, another 10.x release is almost ready

If your running SU v13, Yosemite, may create additional bugsplats as it no longer includes Ruby 1.8...
SU v13 does run, but some plugins that do call that directly may cause bugsplats...
so, update to v14 on Mavericks, get everything stable then switch to Yosemite...
or do both at the same time, it seems fairly stable.

Few important topics on the SketchUp forum for anyone considering upgrading to Yosemite or buying a new Mac:

Well, here, it did crash on first attempt, opening 2 debug windows asking for password ( I cancelled), but once SU reopened works fine. Could it be one of your font is bad ?
I had a problem customizing the top toolbar thought. I could not drag any element to it. Again quit and relaunch solved it.
But non-SU-native icons, i.e. icons of plugins, do not stay up there after quitting SU. Even after closing window and reopening.
update: I've tested SU for 1 1/2 hour and everything else seems ok, including my plugins.
update: Tested on my laptop, all is fine. (French version on both machines) -
SketchUp v2015 is Yosemite compatible, and noticeably faster...
Worth upgrading to both in my opinion...

Yessss !!! SU 2015 finally corrects the icons not sticking in the top toolbar !!
Transferred my plugins and only one load error; 3Dxconnexion (v.10-2-0_r1807). It's in the root Library. Maybe I did something wrong.

No it's a 32bit .bundle, so remove the bundle, it my work as I think it's 64bit by default...
or so you need to see if they have a special SU 64bit version available yet...

I read on SketchUp Community that 3DConnection have yet to release a Yosemite-compatible driver, but supposedly it is coming soon...
