I’ve been using SU 2017 and appreciate there is no help out there for this and no free desktop version any more.
I’ve had a few queries with models running slow and some of the tools not working until either the scene has been changed or on the last occasion, quit Sketchup and re-opened it. Since then my toolbar has changed itself from icons and titles to just small icons and I can no longer customise the toolbar, as the icons just quaver and no window opens to show the other plugins that I had installed.
Greatful for any help. Thanks.
Mac os Sonoma or Sequoia ?
I’m not surprised, it all relies on Mac os (the interface) so any change can impact a 7 (even 8 now) software…
you’ll have to rely on full toolbars now.
Oh! I’m sure I’d had an update to Sequoia and had quit Sketchup since then and this only happened today? But thanks for advice.
FYI, there is no current SketchUp release (as of 24.0.2) that supports MacOS Sequoia.
If you are going to continue using SU 2017 (17.3.116) on a Mac, you’d best maintain a dual-boot system with a partition running an operating system that it supports, ie:
- Mac OS X 10.10 (Yosemite)
- Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan)
- Mac OS X 10.12 (Sierra)
Anything else is “nervously whistling past the graveyard”, (hoping something bad doesn’t happen,) because of later patches or updates.
On Windows even though SU2017 supported Windows 10 (since the initial release of SketchUp 2016,) it eventually became unstable on my Windows 10 and would crash after a few minutes even if I didn’t do anything. I attribute this to system updates since SU2017 was last updated (v17.2) for Windows on February 15th, 2017.
Your other option might be to run the Windows edition of SU2017 on a virtual machine.
