Hi,

until the day before yesterday everything in sketchup 2016 make worked fine. Yesterday I opended the file I am currently working on and now it takes very Long to select i.e. a line. everything else is still working fine and smooth.  
I tried to upgrade to 2017… nothing changed. Even if I open a new blank file… it’s still the same.

Any Ideas?

But I will look at it again this evening!
