Hi, recently started using SketchUp Make after successfully using SketchUP 8. However, Looking at my 3D drawings in print preview they are always in wireframe, and print in wireframe!. I cannot find anyway to switch the printing to solid 3D. Maybe I’m missing something simple. Can anyone help?

video card not fully OpenGL compatible (e.g. intel HD/Iris series), disable “Window \> Preferences \> OpenGL \> Use Hardware Acceleration” to fix… which may also lead to slow speed during screen transformations (fix: recent driver → dedicated video card).

Finally found the topic I needed. My way of asking was: Faces lost, edges remain when printing or saving as 2D  
Thanks for the fix.
