    • Lines not changing colour in LayOut

      Hi,
      I'm trying to change the edge colour of a sofa in LayOut using tags within the SketchUp model tray, and it's not changing. Any ideas why this could be? I've tried it on a couple of test files and it works fine, so I'm not sure why it's not working on this particular file. Is there something that could be over-riding the LayOut line options?

      (The snuggler that I'm trying to change is the little chair in the bottom right hand corner of this screenshot).

      Your screenshot indicates the SketchUp Model inspector panel. The tray includes allof the other inspector panels.

      So a couple of things you can try. Least invasive: go to the Window menu and untick SketchUp Model. Save the LayOut file you have open and quit LayOut completely. Restart it and re-enable the SketchUp Model panel.

      If that doesn't work, quite LayOut and go to ~/Library/Application Support/SketchUp/SketchUp 2023/LayOut and delete LayOutPrivate.json. Then restart LayOut.

      The first thing you have suggested works; but I already do that every time it happens, so I was looking for a more permanent solution. I will try the second suggestion and see if that stops it; thank you.

      Are you talking about the SketchUp Model Panel in the tray?

      No, the entire tray. The actual tray itself is tucked up above the top of the screen. I tried to share a screenshot here but it hasn't worked. How do I share a screenshot?

    • SketchUp Model Tray disappears on mac

      I am having a problem in LayOut, where when I open my SketchUp model tray, the top of it is hidden beyond the edges of my screen, so I can't get to the top of it to minimise it or to move it elsewhere. The only way round it seems to be quitting LayOut altogether and sometimes that fixes it. Is there a way to stop this happening?

      Please see image attached.

    • Electrical Symbols and Text on Scrapbooks

      Hi, I am trying to create electrical symbol scrapbooks. When I create a symbol (for example a TV point which is a circle with the letters TV in it) and I re-scale the symbol, the text no longer fits into the circle, without me changing the font size.

      I have tried lots of different things, including importing the symbol as a png file, but then it is very pixelated. How can I create a scrapbook of electrical symbols that can be used on different scaled floor plans?
