Anyway, the download page is full of spelling mistakes. All are underlined in yellow. :stuck_out_tongue_winking_eye:
(Really this was my first impression… :blush:)

Looks promising especially improvements to Layout inferencing… Excited to try…
I can say the Point cloud terrain mesh works wonderfully after participating in the beta program.
Thank you SU team

Do we know if 2024 is compatible with Mac OS Sonoma?

2 Likes

it is.

23.1 was already working on sonoma, and off course 24 is compatible. it’s technically the first one to be.

Thank you.
I tried LayOut, very smooth with new graphic engine from SketchUp Labs.

Hello everybody,

I’ve just downloaded Sketchup 2024… but it seems V-ray 6 - which is part of the studio package - is not compatible? Is that right?

Greetings,

Michael

In the past, Chaos follows our release with an update to V-Ray so stay tuned on that one.

probably the same with enscape, someone was asking earlier why v4 didn’t work well with 23.1 , maybe they were waiting for 24’s release to roll out the fixes

OK, I will wait.

Thanks for the reply!

I started LayOut (even before starting SketchUp) – opened an older Layout file that I knew was “heavy” with lots of hybrid viewports and PDFs, graphic files, spreadsheets reference attachments which would bring our fastest computer with a GeForce RTX4090 graphics card to its knees… And so far, I’m very impressed with the new Layout graphics engine. With LO22/23 just zooming/panning around that file required the patience of a monk. With LO24 it’s significantly faster and smoother – nothing like a real world example to test out the new version. Great job Trimble – thank you!

just testing SU2024 and it seems like non-native toolbars don’t dock anymore in the SU toolbars?! For instance, if you drag the SelectionToys or SolarNorth over the main toolbar, it doesn’t dock/merge with the toolbar. It just floats. Is that intended? See pic.
Edit also happens if you accidentally move a toolbar like ‘styles’ of the main toolbar and then it won’t dock back again?
Edit 2: easy fix just two posts below by @PaulMcAlenan

Check to see if Show windows contents while dragging is off.

If it’s off, try enabling it.
