2020 LayOut poor performance

I posted something about a work around that seem to have helped a lot. It’s here:

LayOut not updating the page

There’s a 2020 specific LayOut issue that can give a symptom that looks like LayOut has frozen. The other symptoms show that it’s not frozen, but sometimes you don’t see the other clues. Here’s the general case: •After some amount of time, changes you are making on the page, or attempts to select things, stop working. •If you have the Pages panel expanded you will notice that the thumbnail is actually updating, but the actual page isn’t. •Resizing the window, or doing the slightest zoom in or…

As I mention there, the underlying issue is being worked on, and will be fixed in an update to SketchUp. I can’t tell you when that might appear, so I’m hoping that the work arounds will improve things for you.
