          @Glenn-at-home I found it more performant. With large amounts of arrayed components in previous versions I would get that wire bounding box.

          Similar tests with this release and I'm not getting it so far. Reminds me when we got the speed boost between v6 and v7. Not as dramatic as that but definitely noticeable.

            @Rich-O-Brien So far it does seem a bit "faster" or more responsive. I like the included plugin migration. So far all but 1 3rd party plugin seems to be working, Ambient Occlusion but that's to be expected.

              Do you still need the Ambient Occlusion extension since SketchUp has it natively?

              Did you use the Sketchucation ExtensionStore to install your bundle of Sketchucation extensions?
