Hello there
I am not sure if anyone here has experienced the same issue.
I find it easy to move objects around while activating a section plane, rather than switching off tags etc. to get access to that object. I have since a couple of updates ago realised that Sketchup crashes often when doing this and it is extremly disruptive. You should be able to move objects around while a sections plnae is active.
Does anyone have advise?
Yes, share the model!
Hello. It is not the model. Unfortunately it happens in all the projects I work on.
I’ve tested this in several of my own models with sections but can’t duplicate it.
I have started to think that it is a MacOS issue as two of us in the office have the issue. And we have identical machines. The rest are running windows machines.
I haven’t been able to reproduce this using simple models on my Mac. I wonder if it involves some extension you have that I do not? If you can share an example model, I will try with it.
This is a very frustrating issue as I myself am not able to duplicate this on demand either. I will unfortunately not be able to share any of the models. It seems to be a hopeless case. I am trying to capture this issue and share it here but am failing to do so. I will share when this happens again.
I seem to have managed to duplicate the crash. See the clip.
Did you send in the Bug Splat report with your email address and name attached? If so, maybe @colin could look it up and see if it sheds any light.
I just got a crash while testing again after updating to release 298 from 278. Sending in the BugSplat Crash #154198.
Are you running SketchUp with the new graphics engine or the Classic one? I understand that some older Macs (you say your Mac has a Radeon graphics card) are incompatible with the new engine.
Yes, multiple times. I have unfortunately never received any feedback.
I have had no previous issues with the new graphics engine on my AMD Radeon 5500M, but perhaps older or weaker Radeon graphics may be at issue.
Hello. This I think is a very good suggestion. I have set it to the classic version. I will continue to use it like this and see what happens.
I do know of something we fixed that happened when bringing something into an area of the model that was under a section plane. The next update from us should have that fix in it. I can’t yet say when the next update will be released.
Your profile says that you are using Mac OS 13.6.6.
Mac OS is now at 13.7.1.
I am not sure that this will make any difference but you may envision an OS update.
Actually, 13.7.1 was the last release of macOS 13. MacOS is now up to 15.1.1
I know.
13 is the last system that I can run on my 2017 Macbook Pro.
To be able to update to 14 or 15, I need to upgrade my Mac. I don’t have the $$$$ so far.
