Sketchup

Eccentrica, I took some more screen shots. As you can see the x-ray isnt checked. I've done shaded and shaded with texture. Still the same. There is just something wrong with sketchup on Vista.

Moved your thread here, because it's not about technical issues with AM ;)

I have also Vista, and it works fine for me. I have Version 7.0.8657

Have you already tried to de-install and then re-install?

I use Vista, and it works fine for me (with the occasional Podium-induced crash). Make sure you've downloaded the latest version, and that your graphics card is up to par.

As Zenoc2 mentioned, you might have to get the latest drivers for your graphics card.
Otherwise I have no ideas either.

I'm pretty sure everything is up to date on my computer. Perhaps sketchup just doesnt like me. Are you using the free or paid version? I am not paying 495 dollars for something I can barely use. lol

Glad that worked for you. For the record, it makes no difference whether you have the full, paid-for version, or the free version. The full version just comes bundled with a few extra tools.
