Thank you as well, @ateliernab!

Hi, anyone could help me? Couldn’t find and zoom in to my model as well. I tried opening the file in a high settings pc, problem persist. https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/k4272ani046zrtqen5s0n/Parklane-Hotel.skp?rlkey=eo1uqh4sdsc6ciwebfna4kfcj&dl=0

Your problem was 592 texts. I deleted them (they was very big…) and zoomed extend.
Here is the model purged

You have multiple copies of a group spread out at a huge distance.
Use ctrl+a to select all, then shift select to deselect what is at the origin, try Zoom Extents, if it doesn’t work repeat until it does.
As you see here it took 3 goes to get there.

guys im having the same problem how to do this T_T FINAL CE MODEL.skp - Google Drive

Hi Hit Ctrl+A to select everything in the model and then use Zoom Selection and the model appeared. I also did my usual cleanup procedure. First I fixed incorrect tag usage.


Then I purged unused stuff from the file. There’s really no need to be hoarding all those components and materials.

Then I looked at the remaining materials and reduced the size of the excessively large ones.

That resulted in about 82% file size reduction. More could be done such as removing the page borders and other unneded geometry from the CAD import.
I’ll come back with the link once I’ve uploaded.

Edit to add link: Dropbox

hello, my model has also disappeared… please help.

W can’t do anything until you share the model here. If less than 16MB just drag it onto the forum reply window. If larger, load it to a sharing site, make it public accessible, and provide the link here.
