Raster materials often look blurry in Layout (especially when you zoom). However, when you print the document on paper at the correct paperscale, you get a readable pattern visually.

Anyway, to help progressing, I would suggest you post a few images of you vector patterns (e.g. four different types of sheet goods, three types of solid wood, plaster/gypsum and stone countertops).

MrHide is a Toolbarproviding direct access to functions which have no dedicated icons in Sketchup or are embedded deeply in the UI.

In the current version, the functions are related to showing / hiding visual elements in SketchUp, most of them being style and scene parameters

• hidden geometry, hidden objects, back edges
• axes, component axes, dimensions, guides, text labels
• shadow, sun shading, fog
• Ground, Sky
• dge visibility, Edge profiles, Edge endpoints, edge color by material, edge color by axis
• Colors by tag / layer
• Edit Component: show other instances and show rest of the model

There is also a Quick Launcher.

Based on an original idea by JClements, who also designed all the icons.

No documentation. Please check tooltips of the icons and in the Quick Launcher dialog

I don't know what you mean by Sketchucation 'jail'. And as Panixia said, LOTT is free.

Anyway, the trouble might be in the habitat_site_context.rb script, as shown in the Sketchup startup error box..

Did you get an error with the previous version of LOTT and this script installed?
