Hi folks
Whenever I tick a check box on the export options it fails to save. if I open the export options again none of my changes have been saved. Very frustrating - any idea why?
thanks

Which operating system are you running?

Windows 7
But from memory it was the same in Vista. We have been working around it by opening everything in studio.
It's the same issue for the other PC's in our office
thanks

Does it help if you run SketchUp as administrator? On Vista/7, the application needs certain permissions in order to write the preferences successfully.

Thats it. Is there a way we can fix it so non admin users can save settings?
I have the same problem on my home computer.
Thanks so much for your help with this
regards

For the time being, no, it can't be changed. It simply won't be an issue in the new plugin though, as it will be using a very different design.
