Just a mention of a potential bug in Layout (I’m not expecting any diagnostic by the forum). I can revert to a previous workflow so not crucial but given the fanfare about controlling tags in LO I would think that if this is a bug it should be fixed promptly. I use two to three stacked viewports i…

so…I guess Ill do it… Cat herder? spat some milk thru the nose on that one…AND…what a visual image of futility. sorry for not helping the topic…just had say that I acknowledge that the title Sage is worth more than just SKU and LO wisdom.

[image] KeithBrooks: spat some milk thru the nose on that one…A Sorry 'bout that. I find the workflow in SketchUp and LayOut to work well for me. The option to avoid creating multiple scenes for stacked viewports is a big win for me but despite what EF says, I will still continue creating sc…

I am really not telling anyone else how they should be working, this is just me exploring a new scene-less workflow for myself. Here I create a 2D vector line drawing to scale, with several views of an object. It’s a quick version just made to show the concept. I start by adjusting most of the op…

I’m not trying to give you a hard time or argue with you but I would have had those first four views set up as scenes in SketchUp and distributed in LayOut in about the same time it took for you to set up the first viewport. I think there are some applications for sceneless SketchUp models in LO so…

[image] endlessfix: there is no more “modified”, This is now visualised: the modified section is now slightly darker gray

Reading through this post of yours, it’s likely that it’s something that I’m doing then. It hasn’t been frequent, I’ve been finalising a few projects since I first posted and haven’t experienced any repeat.

Hi @MikeWayzovski [image] MikeWayzovski: This is now visualised: the modified section is now slightly darker gray I don’t quite understand what you mean by this. Can you show an example? Kind regards Mike

Mike, when the viewport has been modified you’ll see something like this. [Screenshot - 2_19_2020 , 6_08_13 PM] In this case the view of the model has been changed as has at least one Effect setting and the style. Also notice there is a Reset button displayed. When the viewport is pristine from t…

Thank you @DaveR Just want to make sure I don’t break the link with the Model, which I don’t seem to have done in 2020, even with changing the Styles and Tags in Layout. Mike

Hi Mike, now with LO2020 there are not the same implications there were for modifying scenes in older versions. Some of the things we’d wanted to avoid changing in LO before, can now be set without any problem. I still prefer to create scenes in SketchUp to use in LayOut but now they are really just…

Thanks.

I think my issue was connected to the problem I outllined here…

Thanks to @DaveR 's diagnostic I think I was able to get a better understanding of how the control of the model viewport in Layout works.

So far no problems.
