I think it’s what I expected.
Nothing about speed and stability for high poly models and faster import.
Nothing very impressive but at least two things are good.

In SketchUp you now have the ability to Import and Export Materials improving interoperability for CAD and BIM workflows

This one if it works as I hope will be of big use to me since much is modeled in Revit at work.
Getting materials in to Sketchup will save me time.

Fixed an issue where SketchUp would take focus during start up preventing work in other apps.

A good and wanted fix.
Now I can do something productive instead of looking at Sketchup loading.

Google auto translates SketchUp to either Ketchup or Skate shop pro 2019.

Thanks TIG for the redraw DC code.
However I have a question about the speed of the redraw.
For my testing DC component that is fairly simple (a window) it takes approximately 4 to 10 seconds to redraw.
Is that normal?
Is there any way of speeding it up?

Edit:
Here are a few more times for redraw the same DC.
5.579584 seconds to redraw
5.536248 seconds to redraw
4.532769 seconds to redraw
4.360298 seconds to redraw
4.269832 seconds to redraw
9.777517 seconds to redraw

Is there a way of activating the Dynamic Component Options window through ruby?

+10 for this.

Looks fantastic, tried it? Can the mesh be exported?

Sadly not yet, im still experimenting with this, and havnt found a clean way of importing and exporting (could be my crappy programming knowledge ha)

Its on my wishlist though, so "maybe in the future" is the best answer i can give

Thanks.
Everything in the apartment had to be what will be built so I didn't have any choice on these things.
I even had to remove the logo on the washing machine as it wasn't the right brand.
If it was just to make beautiful renders I might have experimented more with colors.

Thank you Majid.

Thanks all.

I dont think so just lines but its really quick and has worked for me without problems even on grouped nested geometries.
Just go to top view and set camera to parallell and slice four slices.
I have sometimes drawn some guide lines that I snap to when slicing.
You can try the demo for free.

s4u slice is a paid script but well worth it if you need slicing or cropping away parts of a model.
For me it has worked flawlessly.

Here are some interior renderings I made recently.
Original renders were 5000x3000 pixels.
Rendered with Thea4SU Presto engine.
Hope you like them.
Curtains and towel were simulated with Clothworks.
Bathroom rug made with Skatter.

Interesting. Is there any info on how heavy scenes are handled by eevee? Memory wise, if for example the scene memory is bigger than the GPU RAM, what happens? Does it work but slower or just stops?
I downloaded Blender 2.8 beta and must say that it wasn't as crazy as it used to be. I still feel lost but at least now it kind of reminds of how other 3d software works.
Does Blender and eevee support proxies?

I have this script that hides all edges in a selection.
Not sure where it came from.

HideAllEdges.rb

Wonder why I haven’t heard from them?

I haven’t heard anything yet.

Does anyone know if you buy a renewal before February, ahead of when your maintenance ends, let’s say in April. Do you get the extra time added or loose it?

I just got a SketchUp newsletter for December without any mention of a new version.

Doing a fresh install seem to have fixed the issue. Thanks.
