Uh where is it on PC? On Mac I have it but on PC it does not exist anymore. How do I get it back? This material should not be purgeable since it is by far the most important one.
In the Materials panel on the right side just above the eye dropper. It’s always there.

Mine shows white and green because that’s my default face colors.

OMG I am blind. I was looking for it like it is on Mac. It used to be in the materials in the past no?
Not on PC.
Huh I guess I wasn’t using it as much on PC vs Mac. I really wish someday the interfaces could be the same between Mac and PC. The materials is so much different on Mac. I prefer on PC how the tools can be locked to the sidebar and fly out only when needed vs Mac where they are just floating around. Thank you again by the way. You are always the most helpful here.
This what the Materials panel in SketchUp 3 looks like. The icon improved but the Default Material was accessed in basically the same place.
You and a lot of people. It would make things much easier for those of us who teach SketchUp, as well. Rumor has it they are working toward that but the code is deep and big changes break stuff so it’s got to be done carefully.
I prefer the Materials panel in Windows, too.
That is understandable. The current 2D DWG exporting is sorta broken currently (80% of the time it works and 20% of the time it exports only 20% of what it should). I wouldn’t want them to break things just to have better tool access.
I doubt that’s related to UI changes since the exporters like that are 3rd party things. Most likely the developer of the 2D dwg exporter needs to fix something.
The 2D exporter is basically a vector screenshot tool. It should export what is visible on your screen, that and nothing else. Can you post a model and a DWG where this is not the case?
