Grey screen, cant move or see anything

Ive been working on a school project for several hours. When i went to create Isometric pictures of my model my whole screen went grey and I cant see or move anything. please help

Try setting the Camera to Perspective and then hit Zoom Extents. If that doesn’t work, share the .skp file so we can try to help.

There is a dropbox link, im new to sketchup

OK. I fixed the file with Zoom Extents. I also took care of the incorrec tag usage and purged the unused content.

I’ll upload iut to Dropbx and come back with a link.

You’re a life saver, any advice on how I can avoid this happening again?

I would avoid making the 13.5 Hectare (33.4 acre) ground plane. Especially avoid having two huge rectangles. There’s really no reason for that. There was also a mess of text entities located at a huge distance from the model. Not sure where they came from.

Also make sure you keep the model clean and lightweight. (Correct tag usage, lean entourage components, frquently purging unused stuff).

Since you’re a new user go to learn.sketchup.com and learn how to use SketchUp correctly. You do have a subscription license, coorect? Utilize your storage on Trimble Connect to keep back copies of your models.
