I also notice that two of your front dimensions are on layer 0 still, you should move them to the front dimensions layer to avoid them showing in other scenes.
You could get the dimensions to display more clearly by : select dimension>right click>text position.
Hope this helps
I tested your file in SU14:
When I open it I see it is displayed in monochrome mode.
Then I click the first Scene which is Top, and it switched to red scheme. So Top …, Left … , Front … and Iso … are red. Then Monochrom is monochrome. And shaded … is Red.
It seems it works, but why the first three thumbnails contain different style of the model, then it is displayed after I clicked it?
Just re iterate what yo want to achieve.
Do you want all red?
Do you want all mono?
Do you want a mixture?
You did use the added style.skp?
Updating with scene tab will not update the thumbnail.
If you desire thumbnail to reflect the changes:
You can fix it by bringing up the scenes window, select each scene then click the circular arrow update button, that will fix it.
So now to update scene, do it from the scenes window NOT the tab as I described before.
This is what I have after updating with the scenes window, (no styles modified) all styles are displaying correct.
This is what I had before, first three showing incorrect style as per the current setting. The current style is not displayed in the thumbnail:
yeah, added style.skp is the file I used. Now corrected as you recommended. My intention is just as it is on your last photo.
To have all schemes in monochrome, but those who are in paralel 2D view should be for printing so you want to save ink so they should be like monochrome+wireframe … and the (3D view) Shaded and the Iso should be shaded.
How did you achieved the monochrome style from Styles pan?
Ok I have neared to what you want I think…
added style2.skp (53.4 KB)
There are some saving format issues here, it looks different when I re download it.
Make sure you update the scene in the styles window like I say, not the scene tab. This way the thumbnail will display correctly. It may not be quite right still.
The face setting is here: Its called monochrome in the toolbar but not here.
Hope this helps,
I used the “Display shaded using textures” - I think this corresponds with your icon. Mine is a bit different. Well, again I test the file “added styles.skp” in SU8 and now I see all works except the first 3 scenes, which keep the styles red…
Now tried to do as you described and still not working.police - široká.skp (73.7 KB)
I still don’t see what I am doing wrong.
The thumbnail reflect what I want but when I click them, they do not display what they show.
I click it and this is what I see:
You need to double click on the scene thumbnails in the scene window to change scenes. The current scene is indicated by a pencil.
Try clicking the top scene tabs:
To me, no difference. On the Iso, I do not see the red shaded model.
I’ll do it again, but there are some issues here with cross format saving, I re open and settings have changed etc. I will do my best hang on…
The problem is that I cannot reproduce what you do. I could open your new model version but I could not do it by myself in SU8. Creating my own model.

Sketchup 8 version file
Right click first scene tab and “play animation” (white/white/white/red/white/red) should be the order.
I’m trying to give you an example that you can see how it is setup with the styles, the way you want it.
Basically you need to create a new style so you have two in the model.
In the styles window click the create new icon and change the face style for the new style, then update style with changes.
So, one has mono/shaded face style, the other has texture face style.
open both styles + scenes windows
select a scene tab (top) the scene will change to that scene.
select one of the two styles for the scene
click the update scene (circular arrow) in the scenes window
repeat for the other scenes (altering style to suit)
I’m trying to explain clearly, but without actually showing you I don’t know what else I can do.
@barracuda Here’s something to explain about the two styles:
@barracuda Heres what I mean applying the two styles to scenes. Basic but the idea’s there.
EDIT - Remade it first one too fast trying to squeeze filesize 
Sorry for delay. I have created only one style (AFAIK ?!?) called “Shaded style”. But I see also some “Simple style” - IDK if this one is was there already or I have created it.
But now it works.
Hence the main sentence is:
> Basically you need to create a new style so you have two in the model.
Thank you for your time and devotion to explain the problem to me.
Your very welcome, it’s really not that difficult once you understand the concept.
Good luck
Btw- you can use any of the styles if you wish.
The reason I told you to create a new style is that it has all the same settings as the one you already have,you just change the face style to suit. It gives some continuity with background etc.
