    I'm having more problems with SketchUp/SketchUCam. I select tabs, but cannot place them on the drawing. I think there must have been an update at some point, because all sorts of odd things are happening with this programme combination. I'm going to look for an alternative. I have, and use CorelCad2020, but it doesn't have a code facility. Any ideas anyone.

    I can not recall what I did, a long long time ago, when I couldn't place the tabs. I think it was when making the cut lines, inside or outside, didn't produce a face. Post your project here, if you don't mind, and we'll look into it and see why it does it.

    I opened your file and placed tabs with no modification to the file. I am using Sketchup Make 2017.

    Thank you, definitely a bug somewhere. I am using the same programme, but on a Mac. I’ll delete it and reloading think. Thank you

    I too had no problem with the tabs. I even tried it on the round inside cut part with no problems.

    I have the 2016 version of SketchUp v17.2.2555 on a Window machine.

    I’ve reloaded everything and have redrawn the items. Now seems to work ok. I’ve yet to try cutting out on UGS
