      hallo,
      this is my first post in the forum. I have an (axis) line in my SU model and don´t know how to get rid of it. I am talking about the orange/ yellow line in the photo. Can anyboday help me please. Also with this file it always says that the file is already opened somewhere else which is not the case.
      I already tried the repair of the file, but nothing changes.
      When I export it to a graphic file it is not there (see images)
      I would really appreciate help.

      Thanks, Thomas

        Please complete your profile so we know your OS and SketchUp version.

        It looks like the "Solar North" tool's orange marker, which indicated where north is set in the model.
        It's an Extension available from the EWH...
        https://extensions.sketchup.com/en/content/solar-north

        It has a Toolbar which allows you to set the angle, show/hide its marker etc...

        The orange marker looks unusually 'high'.
        If you switch on the Axes in View are they logically located ?
        If you have changed them, then hover over one and choose 'Reset Axes from the context-menu.
        It's normal to have the origin placed somewhere logical like at the model's lowest level, and on a corner...
        Probably best to switch all Layers ON and View>Hidden-Geometry On, then select all and move the model to the axes' origin...
