Steve, did you install your extension manually or through the extension warehouse?
@stevecushman310510 жыл бұрын
Designer Hacks I installed it through the extension warehouse. I just installed sketchup 2014. Are there any settings in the program I should be aware of? Brand new to sketchup but can navigate computer fairly well. This may be a stupid question but the program tells me I have x amount of hours left. I don't want the pro version. Will 2014 version quit working after that time?
@DesignerhacksPage10 жыл бұрын
Steve Cushman When you download sketchup you get pro for a limited amount of time. After that time expires you can continue to use the program with fewer features. This free version of sketchup is called sketchup make.

This is not helpful if you have a Mac. And it seems to be dated - for instance, Preferences no longer has an Extensions section. Perhaps this has all been moved over to the Extensions Manager. I have a Mac, however, and I still do not know how to get any of my plugins from Sketchucation to connect to Sketchup (2018). Perhaps it is simple once you know how to do it, but it is really a pain until that point. And I am not clear why such a comprehensive and longstanding program makes something so critical so difficult.
