      does it work for the latest build (10035)? is it restricted to Intel GMA950 graphics? it seems that the same problem afflicts other macs running 10.5.6 as well.

      There should't be anything build-specific about the patch. It just causes a certain OpenGL call (glClear) to make an extra call (CGLFlushDrawable) when it's called after drawing to the front buffer. As long as SketchUp follows the same call pattern, it should continue working.

      It's possible that this bug exists in other drivers. I'll test on a current-gen MacBook tonight if I remember. Other than that I don't have any other Intel macs available.

      Hello all,
      I am about to buy a month old imac 24 2.8, but I am concerned with this slowness. I had the opportunity to try the pc, and install SKP (version 6) on it to feel how it went. It was all ok, apart from a certain slowness in orbiting. Well it wasn't really slow... the orbit movement wasn't exactly fluid, it came in steps, not in a unique animation.

      I don't know what version of Leopard was on that machine (i forgot to ask, but I assume it is the latest), and I am wondering if this package will solve my problems or not.

      Thank you for any answer on this!

      As I said in the last post - this patch won't help general slowness. Just specific, unreasonable hangs AFTER particular actions (not during). In your case, it sounds like it was maybe using the software renderer instead of OpenGL.

      Ater installing the patch provided, my sketchup 6 or 7 are still slow when dealing with models containing just a few a few extra layers and objects.

      This patch only improves the performance of certain interactive operations, like box-selecting. If these operations are not dramatically slow (making SketchUp hang or freeze for half a second or more) while others (like orbiting) are fast, this patch won't help you.

      SketchUp Pro 7 still crashing,
      I am on a MacBook Pro, 2GHz, latest sketchup, OS 10.5.6
      tried the ThawUp and still crashing.
      I can create a crash by going into layers and hit add layer....
      sometimes just SU crashes, some times the spinning beach ball of death..
      any thoughts or insights.
      next stop the Genius Bar....

      ThawUp doesn't resolve any crashes - just the hang after box-selecting or other interactive operations.

      Since this seems to be a recurring problem, I've put up a mirror on my own webspace and added a link below the download box.

      Thanks for the fix Inio! This makes using SketchUp WAY less frustrating now. Is it recommended to leave hardware acceleration and fast feedback on with this patch and the Intel GMA X3100 integrated card?

      I wasn't aware that this bug even affected the X3100.

      As for leaving those things on - that's up to you. The Google position appears to be to turn them both off, but if it's usable I don't see why you couldn't leave them on.

    • RE: Google Sketchup Pro 7 is out

      I'm a bit surprised that the Leopard hang is still present. Good thing ThawUp didn't assume SU7 would fix it.

      Much to my surprise, SketchUp 7 DOES NOT FIX THIS. This patch is still useful with SketchUp 7.

    • RE: Leopard hang fix

      Yeah, I'm a little surprised this issue hasn't been fixed yet. Three OS updates (four if you count the "Graphics Update") and one SketchUp update later :/.

      (BTW, confirmed to be needed with 10.5.3)
