Hard times indeed. I too can empathize. Here's to a new season. Hope it brings you peace. Welcome back and Sketch On!

Helllo, Thanks for your help. When I turned on the Pc in the afternoon today and opened Sketchup, the phenomenon had disappeared. As a precaution I have installed the latest drivers . Charly

@box said: Ketchup? sounds like a problem in the Sauce code.

Thank you all. I had copied the window out of a larger model and I was amazed about the thousands of edges. After I had exloded the whole component the problem was solved.

@charly2008 said: Hi, Spoke too soon! in some models, the error message appears again. I've googled already hundreds of pages. It seems that hundreds of thousands of users have the same problem . By searching the Nvidia Forum I found nothing. With Nvidia, the problem seems to be unknown. It can not be that no one can solve this problem! Charly Adjusting graphics driver Timeout Detection and Recovery (TDR) may help. It could be that for some reason CUDA kernel runs longer than default delay allows. http://www.thearender.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=98519#p98519

Thanks for the replies. Sometimes I feel like a beginner.

Maybe you can use the geopositioning of SU and import the better mesh afterwards and use the google earth terrain as a reference for the positioning?

Also, forgot to mention. If the model checks out and everything is true/square, then use the delete coplanar plugin, and all those goofy extraneous lines will go away. I'm not sure how to link you to the page with the plugin, but it is in the plugin sub-forum somewhere here on Sketchucation

"Silent running", almost.

I've used autoCAD WS to view exported dwg's of my model with some success on nexus 7. Looking at Sightspace on the playstore there doesn't seem to have been any great take up compared to other programs and has a mixed bag of reviews. Anyone out there using it and on what device? Brian I've been using SightSpace on my Samsung Galaxy Slll for awhile. My two cents,it does a decent job of viewing small to mid size models,panning and rotating smoothly,though some curved and/or smoothed surfaces sometimes appear faceted. Also have not had much success with the augumented reality mode. Mike

Happy holidays, Merry Christmas and a great New Year to everyone!

For correctly aligned backdrop one can use tomasz's Bring My View Back. Watch this tutorial http://youtu.be/MK7HAgONdaU?hd=1
