As always, much appreciated Dave. Thanks

Does any one know why some models display incorrectly in layout when hybrid or vector mode is selected?
HYBRID ISSUE.layout HYBRID ISSUE.skp

In the image of the of the gold triangle in the clipping mask you are seeing unwanted lines that are behind surfaces.
In the screen shot of the SKP is how it should look
In the image of the quicklink with all the loops it work fine no issues.

Any ideas? thanks in advance.

My colleague has downloaded Sketchup 2024 and now can't seem to uninstall Sketchup 2023. It doesn't show up in the installed apps page or via control panel. Even our IT dept couldn't seem to locate it and just referred us to the Sketchup help page

However when following this guide you get to step two & cannot continue as Sketchup 2023 isn't in the list.

Let me know if you have any ideas as its annoying not having Sketchup2024 as default

Thanks in advance.

Thanks Dave, much appreciated.

Hi all

I have started working at a new company who stores all their files on a server.
When opening, saving and updating Sketchup/Layout files its very slow.

Do you pro's keep all your files on the local disc? Does this make it quicker?

The machine i'm using is a brand new gaming PC, Deets below

The internet speed here is about 80 mbps download & upload

Is there an optimum way of organising skp & lo?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Box, yes tried that, turns out somehow the wardrobe door i was trying to move was the problem, somehow it got corrupted or maybe the mb count was to high, it did have quite a big psd texture on it, must try it without the texture and see if that works but i just ended up redrawing it. thanks

Hi, can anyone tell me why copy and paste between files has stopped working?

It will still work with a simple shape but when i try with anything more complicated it doesnt work.

I have reset the pboard in my activity monitor to no avail.

Im using sketchup pro 2018 on a mac running high sierra

Many thanks in advance

Can anyone tell me if its possible to chamfer or round a corner or angle just on a 2d plane?
Obviously Round corner plugin on a 3d shape, but does it work in 2d?

Sure, use the arc tool and it even trims it for you but if you want to chafer multiple offsets on many corners in one operation.

If not is there a plugin available that does this?

As in the image i want to take the corners off a square thats on a face. A=B

Many thanks in advance.

Thanks for that Dave.
It seems to be behaving itself now.
And I also hadn't thought to duplicate the page so i will be doing that in future if i run into trouble.
The file is 266mb and the viewport wasn't modified.
I guess you would only go file>insert if you wanted viewports from a separate .skp

Hi all

When adding a page to your layout document but the reference is too big for your clipboard to copy & paste from the previous page, do you go file-insert-navigate to the file?
I not sure why some of these view ports are to big for the clipboard, the model is quite small but i suppose the texture sizes make a difference.

Is there a quicker way?

Thanks in advance for any advise.
