So far the method above is quite powerful to overcome thumbnails that don't appear in Sketchup 2017, but if both of these methods can't display thumbnails on your computer, then you can use thumbnail viewer applications such as Mystic thumb, XnView and MoonTools 3D. The next step, click the View tab, then uncheck Always show icons, never thumbnails, then check the Display file icon on thumbnails menu. The trick is as follows: First, please click Start → Computer, then open the Organize menu then click Folder and search options. In addition to using the above method, you can use alternative methods through Windows explorer settings.

Well in this tutorial, I will try to overcome the problem of thumbnails not appearing in Sketchup 2017 that I use on Windows 7 Professional 64 bit. It means that I can’t open the model I made with SKPRO 2018. After 1 month of trying period I decided not to buy SKPRO and use SKP Make. skb file is a backup format created automatically by the Windows version of the Sketchup system which functions to backup programs if the original file is corrupted or deleted. Hi, I started a 3D model with SKPPRO 2018. This also often happens when we download component models from 3dwarehouse, sometimes we don't pay attention to the version of the file that we are going to download with the version of Sketchup that we install, so what happens is that the thumbnail doesn't appear and the file can't be opened.Īnother cause of thumbnails not appearing in Sketchup is the file that we save or download does not have the file extension. For example when we draw a table, we use Sketchup 2017, then after that we downgrade the Sketchup version to Sketchup 2016. There are many causes that make thumbnails not appear in Sketchup, One of them is the version of the Sketchup file that we have is not the same as the version of Sketchup that we use.

SketchUp Desktop Viewer is a free download that’s great for viewing models on computers that don’t have or need a full version of SketchUp.Causes and how to fix thumbnails do not appear in sketchup pro 2017 With SketchUp Desktop Viewer, anyone can view and print models created in SketchUp. How do I open SketchUp files without SketchUp? You’ll be prompted to choose a SKP version to download. I recommend downloading that file and doing an Import > Collada/KMZ file into your model to use it as desired. If you do not have any of the available versions of SketchUp that can be downloaded, every model should include either a KMZ or a Collada file.
