instantly it’s slow
Ahh!
There have been numerous reports here of that sort of behavior. It’s been traced to either the graphics drivers or some bad updates from Microsoft. You can find several threads on this topic if you search for ‘slow’.
Like this one:
Up until yesterday SketchUp Pro 2017 was working wonderfully, now it still works great with the exception of one thing: It is impossible to triple-click or double-click select because it takes about 30 seconds for the selection tool to work and highlight the object. It freezes until then. Absolutely every other function works perfectly, it just takes half a minute to select/deselect anything. A group, a face, a line, anything.
It is driving me crazy… It is not model specific either, it happens …
I had the same issue. SU was running fine and then one day it slowed to a crawl.
I have an intel video adapter and ran the driver utility program found here: Intel® Driver & Support Assistant
The utility updated my video drivers and SU is now back to normal operating speeds.
