Smugmugexport causing crash software#

I also prefer the Mac environment, but will probably move to Windows in the future. I’m giving up a lot by using SU2017 but a stable work environment is critical.

Smugmugexport causing crash software#

At my level of expertise trying to troubleshoot whether the problem is hardware or software is bewildering and greatly frustrating. I did not have this problem with SU2019/2020.Īs of today, I have reverted to SU2017 which is producing a stable work environment (no crashes so far ~5 hours, fingers crossed). The frequency of crashes went down (2-4 in 6 hours), but did not stop. I have not received any helpful suggestions.Īt one point I completely wiped the machine, reloaded only SU2021, with few extensions. I also regularly send reports to Apple and SU. My crashes generally occur when using extensions or on closing SU. I also experience regular crashes with solid tools, so much I stopped using. stl files as MM so there is no scaling on either end, things just appear in the slicer at the correct size, this is a common workflow. I leave my SketchUP model in meters, export as-is without any scaling, and have set Cura (my slicer) to read all. With this practice I never have issues making any type of complex geometry.STL is a unit-less format, so the actual units used to model is not recorded in the file, what matters is the unit set in the import process into your slicer. I model in M and treat them as MM, many others do the same. General best practice for 3D printing is to model at 100 or 1000x scale.

001', edges smaller than that such as are created in tiny radius curves cause errors and prevent faces from forming, it could also be causing crashing if you are running out of ram in calculating the number of edges created in a complex solid operation, although the edge count for this model is pretty modest at around 50k.

You might be running into the tiny geometry issue when using solid tools on such small geometry. These are to scale but I am designing at 8x Can someone on a Mac try this? I am also crashing the program frequently using solid tools with these complicated objects.
