I just updated to SketchUp 2026for Mac. I had been unable to use 3d warehouse on 2023. When I download a component into my model I get 2 models. even if I explode the models I can’t separate the 2 versions of the same model.

well it depends on the model. can you share us a link to it ? or download it and share the file here ?

some models contain only one object. some models contain many. maybe you’ve downloaded a model that contains two ? or you’ve accidentally duplicated it ? hard to say with the info you’re giving 🙂

I tried downloading about 4 different models. All were of drum kits with a number of drums and other things. All of them uploaded with the model and the exact same model looking greyed out below the first model. When I went to edit it said component - 2 in model.

Give us an exact title for the drum kit that shows this so we can try it and see what we get.

Please update your forum profile. It’s seriously obsolete.

Well, I just went to look for the models and tried uploading and this time it downloaded as one model. So I’m good. But thanks for the assistance.
