For the first example, the going full screen, new tab, close, is just a variation of the general problem of getting a bugsplat when closing a document. The full screen part or new tab isn’t important. Simply open SketchUp, command-w to close, command-d to not save, and you get a crash.
Any updates coming for either app? So far everything I have (that is important!) works with Sierra. SU would keep me from upgrading, but Layout is pretty bug laden as is I don’t rely on it (but would still be nice if an update came out fixing the crashers, at least).
Sooooo… the official SketchUp position on this is NOT to install the Sierra update? This thing is coming out tomorrow if I’m correct and my Mac is set to auto update - I’ll need to know to turn that off if SketchUp doesn’t advise its install until the bugs are worked out…
New releases of Mac OS X have come out ahead of the SketchUp update cycle for the last couple of years, and Trimble has not issued a maintenance update to address problems. They have told us to wait for the next release of SU later in the Fall. I would expect the same thing this cycle: unless you are willing to live with possible bugs and crashes, wait for SU 2017 before updating to Sierra. (Caveat: I do not work for Trimble, this is my independent opinion).
We a preparing a maintenance release for SketchUp 2016 to deal with the issues on Sierra. We’re still running through our QA processes to make sure everything is in order, but we should get it to you this week.
We’ve just released our maintenance versions of SketchUp on the Mac to address macOS Sierra issues. We concentrated on any issues that were causing crashes, so there may still be a few more cosmetic issue we’ll have to deal with in SketchUp 2017.
SketchUp > Check Web for Update… will lead you to the new installs.
downloaded per the web page link, but it shows a feb 2016 date and after installing it, I get the “update” notice again. The date on both sketch up and layout is 2.24.16.
Did you download SketchUp 2016 Make or Pro? English, or another language? We could have some trouble with our links. And (at the risk of being obnoxious), you are on the Mac, right? This release was Mac-only to address Sierra.
It would be handy if your downloads page mentioned the date it was modified. I already had 16.1 installed, and the new download is also 16.1, but at least shows as modified on September 19th. It is a more recent version, and does fix the bugsplat when closing document issue. But, a date in the downloads page would have been encouraging,
