Please send in the crash reports so Trimble engineers can see the crash data.

What font is “宋体” ?

I just did the same with a height of 3.m (meters) and NO BugSplat!

So this crash may have to do with small edges below SketchUp’s threshold.

Yes, I will report it.
This is a Chinese font.
I also think it’s because the size is too small.

Since you are adding the 3D Text primitives to a group, it’s best to use a large scale like 1 meter height, and then afterward scale the whole group instance down to the smaller size.

Ie, the text will still be 1 meter high in the group’s definition.

Yes, that’s how I deal with it now.
