Hello - I recently switched to Sketchup v22. I have a rather complex model with +/- 60 scenes that was created in v21. About half of the scenes are Parallel Projections to create elevations of a building. These scenes also include a section plane and the scenes are ‘aligned’ with the section pla…

Thanks Anssi though the alignment of the view then is changed, which means that all the work in Layout is messed up. I ended up deleting some larger geometry and the problem goes away. Not that I want to delete that geometry

[image] jwhida: which means that all the work in Layout is messed up. The problem file I had kept its view crops in LayOut, contrary to what I feared. Try it - I wonder if mileages vary.

Thanks Annsi, Upon further investigation, I have realised my various other attempts to fix the scene was messing up layout. I confirm turning perspective on then off, and updating the scene fixes the problem. I do note however that even though layout will show the scene at the correct former posit…

This is a huge issue for me as well. Whiteout has happened in 90% of my scenes. Any any active sections turned off in 2022 there were active in 2021.

benarimcdonald - I totally agree. This is a huge issue and has affected several of my active projects. The work-arounds and script that Colin posted work for one of my projects but not the others. Doug

Would you like to try the script work around on your file?

Yes that would be great Colin, thank you. It’s just a bummer I’m on a deadline and have very limited time to trial and error solutions. I’ve already spent a solid day just resetting scenes and viewports and annotations, dims, etc.

Colin, the script seemed to work on ALL of my viewports, thank you!!! I tried turning scene transitions back on afterward and it seems to work fine. Can you confirm doing that is okay?

Yes, that’s ok. Scene transitions need to be off while the script is running.

I’m having this same issue, and use Layout for my CDs, so this is a HUGE problem - will there be a fix soon???

It’s buried away in a thread - but some a clever user has written a script you can run to update an older file affected by this.
That saves you manually having to update each scene
