Hats off to the entire SketchUp team for ambient occlusion.....it goes where diffusion cannot. And, a big thank you to you, Aaron....for always enlightening us with what's new and much more.

Ambient Occlusion, I have been waiting 10 years for this...

Great update guys. Look forward to getting into it.

this new version of SketchUp is the best update ever

Amazing update. The ability to auto render terrain heights and snap multiple locations together helps me a ton for my project im working on. Ambient occlusion looks great as well.

Loving 2024, great new features and performance improvements

Great job Aaron, really good explaining 2024 so far. Have a great day.

Disappointed two years in a row. Performance improvements are great, but bug fixes and feature additions are what excites me. I can’t believe I still need to move tool palettes between monitors every time I start. And how frustrating that after all this time I still need to reinstall all my extensions.

"I can’t believe I still need to move tool palettes between monitors every time I start. And how frustrating that after all this time I still need to reinstall all my extensions." YES & YES!

Ambient Occlusion does look sharp!!!!

Excellent review - thank you🙏

Thanks for walking us through. I am always frustrated Mac and Microsoft don't have the same display format. I had to find ambient inclusion.

Looks like a good update. Thanks.

just for fun downloaded new 2024. after choosing options looks like its not responding and not doing simple tasks. Is 2023 version more better or same ?

...another great video thanks!

hello Aaron! many thanx for your tips throughout the years! I would like your opinion about a value for money laptop! is there any machine you strongly recommend? I usually use sketchup with enscape and v-ray for rendering. Thanx again!

SketchUp is probably gonna get better and better every year.

Can we round off edges yet without paying a third party another 100 bucks?

Wow, Ambient Occulsion ... been waiting for something like this since V2 ;O)

2024 looks great, however, when will tool bars and extensions transfer between versions?

Hi there sketchup! I recieved de 2024 version fore ipad (pro 2022 M1) And i must say!: The ipad has some serious trouble running this great program right now!... its "lagging" and the lines are not "crisp" anymore. Hope sketchup comes with a fix fore this.. Or, it has somthing too do with the settings i run. Thx you guys!

Is ambient occlusion going to make its way to the iPad version and/or the paid web version?

Great Update Features

All these great improvements yet still no Radius /Diameter Dimension tool in Layout 🤷‍♀

Is the enhanced graphics for Sketchup something which has to be enabled (like in Layout) or is it on by default?

@SketchUp

Unlike LayOut, SketchUp's new graphic engine isn't 'experimental', so it's on by default.

Thank you sketchup!

Please improve interval auto save feature. its always so long to wait the autosave if the files/3d getting bigger

Thankyou

Indeed it s a great version. But do you know why the problem with trimming objects that changed starting from 2023 version persists? In 2022 version if you want to trim an object with multiple other objects that intersect it, you launch the command, choose the first object and than if you click the others one by one trimming is done . In 2023 and 2024 you have to press trim solids command after every trim. Also in past versions when trimming, if you press escape that means it let you choose the first object (the trimming one) and you don t have to exit the command. In 2024 you have to exit command every time to choose another first trimming object. It is a mess when you have a lot to trim. Can you pass this problem please , maybe a solution could be applied? Thank you

Lots of cool architectural features. Looks like Sketchup is no longer competing in the maker space since complex milled and printed shapes are still a problem.

Got to hand it to them, the Devs nailed it with this one.

YEs!! new sketchup is much faster than version 2023!!

How do I get the SketchUp logo T-shirt please.

The nicest thing so far is simply the program Launching well! Was so clunky would start, crash , restart, crash and after 3 to 5 times would finally stick. The second best thing is not wasting half a day trying to get my 3D Connexion mouse to working again after the upgrade! Just install the latest Mac driver and Wow, everything's working?! No Way, impossible! (I can't imagine how anyone can work without this device) So kudos there!

Been using Sketchup since 2012, always love it and promote others to use it. AO and speed improvements look great. Teddy, that seems like a poor choice.

I love sketchup 2024 :)

The location maps are out of date. If you use Google Earth, they are more current. That is disappointing. Is there a way to get these views updated?

How many months do we have to wait for the second release of 2024? I don't do first releases.

I bought the new Sketchup 2024 and it is very good! . BUT! - if someone had any plugins on earlier versions of SU, these plugins will usually no longer work in the new version of SU 2024 and you have to pay (if you have paid plugins) and install them again. The new version of SU 2024 is very sensitive to old plugins and rejects them. you only need to install plugins that are adapted to SU 2024, otherwise they will not work. (there are some plugins that still work with SU 2024, but there are very few of them, such as 1001bit) which is a pity.

Some of the more complex (usually paid) extensions may need to be updated by the developer - which I assume most will. Skatter for example didn't work right away on v2024, then released an update. Check back soon for updates or post a question to our forum for more detailed support. There's no reason to pay more than once for an extension and I have yet to come across any of extension that doens't work in v2024

*happy sounds* lol

I ❤ SketchUp

The new Share Link feature is so outdated. It should display social media icons to choose from where to share, including email and text message options. Not just copy link.

I'm still using SketchUp Pro 2015 because it isn't subscription.

Sorry you are feeling tired... Unfortunately, The creators of Revit do not allow third parties to create RVT files. If you can get them on the phone and talk them into allowing third parties to create their proprietary file format, we might be able to make that happen...

Cue the complaints ... 😂

Again, another lacklustre update! Adding features/tools natively would be a better update, in my opinion. Also, updateing Layout UI to streamline creating 2d plans/drawings would be better. Don't get me wrong, performance updates are always appreciated, but a change in Layout UI is long overdue.

I am a skp user, since version 5. To date it saddens me to see that it has fallen into a comfort, a maintenance business model. The real improvements of the program come from others such as VB and its development with 5d, for Bim work in the same direction as Revit. Remaining only a program of first analysis is limiting when the program has all the potential to be much more robust. This policy of ´´maintenance´´ and cosmetic updates discourages wanting to renew, frankly I would like to see a much more substantial skp, much more avant-garde, not just one that enjoys the top without maintenance, nor ambition to surpass itself.

So far the new version has been unusable. Constant bug splats for me.
