      That's an easy fix Steve I'd imagine.

      One will eventually come.

        The new labeling tools are great in Layout. Finally looks like we have the power of Leaders in SketchUp. I've posted about my thoughts http://robindejongh.com/?p=1019

        The 64 bit experience is the biggie, although I still can't get it to work. Memory on my 8Mb machine is still capped at 4Mb. Anyone with suggestions?

        Memory capped at 50%

              In V2014 I had the VCB docked on the left hand side. In V2015 I can seem to move it. How do I move it or is it now fixed?

                  If you mean like this, docked above the bottom status bar. Right click on the top toolbar and select Measurements toolbar and drag it to where you want it.

                    All the plugin gods on this forum. Can we have a list of plugins which will not work in the 2015 version of sketchup or which will certainly won't be updated because their creators are no more interested in their future development? 🎉

                      After much digging I may have found solutions to my problems with 2015 - two of my favorite plugins not working "Model Location" and "Nudge".

                      Seems TIG is on the ball and has updated a plugin that will work in 2015
                      2014-11-05_103417.png
                      this thread can be found here http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=40142#p40142
                      TIG's post can be found down at the bottom of the thread, with a link to download the plugin.

                      As for Nudge, Smustard has apparently updated the plugin to work with newer SU versions

                      although I cannot say for certain that it works with 2015. I purchased the plugin about six hours ago and have yet to receive the email with the download link. I have had good luck with their plugins in the past so I'm hoping for the best.

                      Just thought I would pass along this information in case anyone else was wanting these plugins for the new and improved SU

                          You might take a few minutes to have a look around. This is already in progress in the Plugins forum.

                              Yeah, but does it work in SU2015?

                                      so... im getting frustrated by having the same poor performance by SU 2015 in complex models, and then i saw Rob D's post on how his pc responded when switching on the shadows...

                                      i dont have a high end PC like you guys, but i think i should notice some navigation improvement with this 64bit version, but no... its the same performance i get with SU 2014...

                                      i even took a printscreen, and its strange cause even orbiting with shadows on, my SU 2015 only uses a fraction of my RAM and only one core of my CPU...

                                        I was able to test some of my heavy models and I can confirm that the performance is much better. I also did a test with Thea that would usually crash SU. This time SU did not crash. So far so good. Thanks team! 👍

                                          Maybe post your system specs? Details about CPU / GPU / MOBO / RAM etc. Maybe there's something useful in there.

                                            it's sort of hard to tell but i'm guessing some of those chairs, pillows, couch details, drapes (etc) are high poly objects and if so, they're going to slow down navigation..

                                            can you post the info in Window-> Model Info-> Statistics ?
                                            (namely, the edge and face count of the model)
