      My concern is for the artistic direction of SketchUp. For instance, the new orbit symbol isn't as nice as the last one, not even as descriptive. And we have to use this constantly. The "architectural design style" style isn't exactly the same, and not as nice. It can be changed to be more like the original, but why was it changed? It just doesn't seem like a truly artistic person is making decisions for Trimble or is on the staff. But I love SketchUp! Whatever you do don't ever change the perspective system - it's the best.

        Just to make sure, you know that you can use orbit tool by pressing the mouse wheel? You don't actually have to click on Orbit button. When it comes to look and style, yeah, it could be better. But it's not a big deal for me, I always have to customize it as I like anyway.

          I really appreciate SketchUp and use it every day. Make works beautifully, maybe better than earlier versions. Sorry to trash the artistic direction! Wish list: Make the selection highlight a thinner line - the thicker line obscures things during the selection process. Thank you.
