SketchUp and Leopard

What should I know about Google SketchUp Pro and Leopard (Mac OS X 10.5)?

As you may know, the newest version of Mac OS X Leopard has recently been released. Please note the following issues we've encountered so far:

  • SketchUp may crash when clicking the "Get Current View" button, or by clicking "Tools" > "Google Earth" > "Get Current View."
  • Clicking the "Place Model" button, or clicking "Tools" > "Google Earth" > "Place Model" will do nothing on a Mac PowerPC. SketchUp will appear to have not processed the request. To work around this issue, we suggest the following steps:
    • Click "File" > "Export" > "3D Model..."
    • Choose "Google Earth 4 (*kmz)" from the "Format" drop-down menu.
    • Enter a file name and click "Export."
    • Open Google Earth and click "File" > "Open."
    • Browse to and select the KMZ file you created and click "Open."

Google is working to resolve these issues as soon as possible, and we look forward to offering full compatibility with Mac OS X Leopard.
