In SketchUp I happily have my 2 styles. Refresh (Not sure if this is the correct term but the 2 arrows) and it shows the 2 styles. However, whenever I click one, it goes and adds “Architectural Design Stye” to the list in LayOut (not in SketchUp) and refuses to let me click either of the other styles, defaulting to this and reverting to “profiles” and “profiles1” whereas the styles in SketchUp are “profiles” and “shadows”
That’s odd. Is the Architectural Design Style included in the SketchUp model? If you aren’t using that style for any of the scenes in your model, purge it from the In Model styles.
You should be able to select whichever style you want for the viewport in LO. I wonder if @Barry might have some insight into why you can’t change the style.
No it isn’t. I just went through and cleared all the styles and remade the 2 I needed. Very annoying. Here my cursor is on “shadows” yet “Architectural design style” is added again and selected.
I wonder if the style is coming in through your LayOut template. There probably has to exist at least one style that LayOut can assign to model viewports.
Even if I did have this style intentionally, I don’t see why it wouldn’t let me select the other 2. I click on any other style and it highlights the “Architectural design style” one instead.
We did fix a style bloating-file-size bug for 2025.0.2 that was introduced in 2025 and 2025.0.1, but that would let you change styles. Just make sure you’re on 2025.0.2 (latest).
If Profiles are turned on in the style they’ll be visible in the viewport. You can turn off Edges and let only Profiles show. You can also set the weight of the profile edges heavier if you want.
Was trying to set them less than the 0.1 it let me do. Tried exporting it as a vector with my profiles style but it then only displayed edges. Taking this into Illustrator only had the section cut line and the edges as 2 different weights to select.
I’ve admitted defeat and am just forcing it to work in Photoshop. Thank you all for getting me to a stage where I’ve got exports and can do what I need though! Appreciate your time
New fun issue, despite both styles having pure white backgrounds, no sky, no ground, the profiles page exports with a background of #fffffb whilst the shadows page exports with #ffffff.
I must be missing something. I went and remade the style. Applied the shadows style and then just added profiles so expected it to have the same white background. Apparantly not?
Tried copying the shadows page, turning shadows off and turning the profiles style on. Same issue. I have no idea how the profile style isn’t #ffffff.
I don’t know if I’m losing my mind at this point because surely this is user error. I’ve been going back and forward between SketchUp and LayOut to try and find the issue and have no idea what has happened.
