The ∞ SketchUp Wish List

The value control box stands to gain an awful lot:

And I’ve noted a bug that if you are working in Metric units, and want to enter lengths in the VCB in Imperial (some or all of feet, inches and fractions) you get daft and inconsistent results. See:

SU doesn't recognise fractional inches (e.g., 1/2") as an imperial measurement when units are mm

I thought that SU would recognise imperial units (feet, inches and fractions) in the Measurements box, even if model units were set to mm. It doesn’t recognise fractional inches. And no, I’m not using curly quotes. Drawing in mm with two decimal places, I tried to push-pull 1/2" (where I type in the 1/2" characters. I get 0.5mm instead. if I type in 0.5", I get what I expect - half an inch or 12.7mm. This seems to me like a bug, or at least behaviour I don’t expect. It seems also to be true…
