Found out that in 2019 a section cut in the drawing will cause Exploration Render to hang. Not on the first render but on updating it seems. I simply open the default SketchUp template add a section cut on the guy and set the E render a couple times.
Not always sure whether a subject is "feedbacK" or "support." I suspect this one is a bug, but it could be just me. However I can't see a way to avoid it, other than not trying to use the E render if I have sections in the drawing. The section doesn't have to be active to do this.
Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
Woops it also happens with the main render window. Just push Low+ and boom it renders. Push it again and you get the beach ball. I just ran across this in a busy rendering-modeling schedule, and didn't fully explore what was happening.
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
Are you using MacOS 10.14?
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
Yes. 10.14.3.
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
This is probably all part of the same Mojave issue. I've been waiting on some new hardware since my previous OSX development machine wasn't allowed to upgrade to Mohave (grrr). It should arrive today and we should hopefully get some progress made on figuring out why things aren't working on Mojave.
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
Otherwise, my old (2013 is old for Macs now) does OK with Mojave and Twilight. Thanks. I'd be happy to test things if needed.
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
So you have a Mac that runs Mojave and Twilight Render successfully and one that doesn't?
We will definitely be contacting the users who have reported issues with Mojave when we have an update that we think will resolve the problems.
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
No. By "otherwise" I mean other than this problem (so far).
Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
It makes it easier to diagnose when there aren't exceptions. That's what makes Macs so challenging. On some macs, it works fine and on others it doesn't and it's essentially impossible to determine why the difference. I would rather it fail on all installs Mojave rather than just some.Re: Exploration render hangs with section cut 2019
i thought the original idea of Macs was to control the OS/hardware for consistency, but now after Jobs, maybe not.
