I up graded to the premium membership just to talk to someone direct about this issue. Amazingly I was contacted within minutes about this problem. I sent sample files and received a response within hours that they could reproduce the same problem they never knew of. Apparently its a bug with the LO13 and hopefully will be fixed with the 2014 version. Of all the things I could discover I land a bug.
Yes, the old version worked perfectly in vector and made for real nice construction drawing sections and details.

In Layout 2013 some of the section lines are missing when rendered in vector mode. They are there in raster and missing the vector lines in hybrid. I didn't have this problem with the old version and is making nice clean sections and details impossible without tracing the whole thing. Anyone have the same problem? Any solutions?
Thanx...

After I make a model I can't send to layout. When I hit "send to layout" a window pops up that reads "license limit exceeded". I add my license and the window reads license exists...no kidding Sherlock! I can open Layout and import file but when I reopen the file is "missing". I can relink file file but after I close it and reopen its unlinked. What the hell? I suspect I have the free version and the paid version in my computer but when I try and export to layout it opens in the free version but in the evaluation version. How do I fix this please?!
Thanks...

Thanks for your help! I did just as you suggested with success. My custom scrapbook remained too! Again thanks...

I have SU13 on Mac. Somehow the pattern fills and stand scrapbook in layout are missing. I have my custom scrapbook but that's all and nothing in patterns fill. How do I refresh this items?

Hey TIG,
I found the library in users...hidden from view. I was able to copy old plugin and put it in the correct file! Thanks for your help...so much. I had to research how to get into that hidden file (while in FINDER while viewing USER you click on Go at top of screen and hold the ALT key and "library" is revealed. Guess apple wants to keep idiots like me out of that area.
Now any idea how to add my materials from SU8 to v13? Don't see any materials file anywhere.

Thanks TIG,
I did just that and it reads...
Users/"me"/library/application support/SU2013/SU/plugins
When I'm in apple finder it shows "favorites" with airdrop, applications,desktop, documents,downloads,movies,music,pictures and "me"(user) listed below. Below that it shows "shared" and "devices"...below devices Mac HD and Remote Disc is listed.
When I click on "me" I don't see "library" so I can't even begin to find application support, etc. I can only get to that in Mac HD.
Non related, I want copy my materials folder in SU8 but couldn't find the materials folder in SU2013 to paste it in. I'm guessing this must be the same issue.
I'm lost...

Just tried both and no luck.

I installed/upgraded to the new 2013 SU on my MacBook Pro. I have been using SU8 for the last few years and have one plugin (and only one plugin) from Chuck Vali "Instant Roof Pro". With some help from Chuck I copied the .rb and .rbs files from my old plugin folder in SU8 and pasted them into the SU13 plugins folder. I restarted my computer and opened SU13 but there was no "plugins" at the top bar (like in my SU8 version). I just installed the SketchUcation thing and now I get the "plugins" at the top bar in SU13 but only shows the plugin store, manager, extension manager and tool bar on/off.

I'm no rocket scientist and even though I'm building some nice detailed large custom homes and producing real nice working drawings in LayOut, I have a hell of a time operating the ins and outs of my computer. Here is how i got there;

Mac HD/library/application Support/sketchup 2013/sketchup (right click and "show package contents)/contents/plugins... Showing the two InstantRoof.rbs and .rb files.

Help please!

Thanks,

Victor
