      Hi Sketchucators, need your help:

      I use SketchUp Make Pro 2014 on my work desktop, and a SketchUp 2016 (free) on my home laptop. I normally work on files synced to the cloud. To avoid version conflicts, I wrote a simple script that enables me to save in version 8 using the shortcut Ctrl+Alt+S. However, being human, sometimes I still forget.

      How can I write a script that will remind me to save as version 8 every time I close a working file? i.e. Instead of simply reminding me to save my work, SketchUp will remind me to save in a particular version when I close the file.

      Anyone? Much thanks!

        It is possible to have a plugin not only remind you, but to actually save the model as v2014 whenever the model is saved by normal methods (using File > save, or ctrl-s.)

        I'll post something hopefully today.

        One problem though is a doubling of the save time since the model will be saved once as the default version, then again as the v2014 version. So maybe this is not the best way.

        Hi
