Sometimes a haiku says it best:
new SketchUp version
shadows work much better now
farewell artifacts!
You'll want to download today's free update for SketchUp 8 as soon as possible. It contains (among a great many other things) fixes for for raster image export at high resolutions on Windows, and for the dreaded Shadow Bug. If you listen carefully, you can hear the sound of millions of modelers uncorking Champagne to celebrate. Believe me – we're thrilled, too.
The newest version of SketchUp 8 (free and Pro) is available today in English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Korean, Japanese, Traditional Chinese and Brazilian Portuguese. Stay tuned for Russian, Dutch and Simplified Chinese; they’re coming soon.
Here's how to get the latest version of SketchUp 8:
Windows: Choose Help > Check for Update
Mac: Choose SketchUp > Check Web for Update
Please feel free to express your own euphoria in the form of a haiku in this post's comments thread.
Udpate: Added Korean to the list of available languages.

Thanks guys this is great news...well done!
Thanks for great work!!
Just Thanks
i don't share in the adoration, at least not of this update notice.
i can not find the version number anywhere. i attempted to update SU Pro, but when it was complete, nothing looked different. i don't know if i successfully updated or not because i can't compare what it says the version number is with what the new version number is. here is a haiku for aidan, think it thru.
Hi Pat,
The version number for Windows is 8.0.4811 and Mac is 8.0.4810. Hopefully that helps.
Regards,
Tommy
great!
hope it won't take 10 yaers to turn SU into 64-bit?
this bring SU for MAc to 8.0.4810?
Congrats to the SU team. Now we can finally lurk in the shadows...hehe
Is there already an official statement about the support of 64 bit OS-es?
you guys are fantastic, and provide all these great tools for humanity for free! Thanks is the very minimum one can say to you. So the haiku for you all is for u from us all

Any idea when the broken "Add Location" will be fixed? I use it a great deal.

Sorry guys, the shadow bug is still there. I have the latest version (8.0.4811) and the shadows are still sometimes wonky.
Having an Issue:
For a few days straight, I have been unable to create Components in any SketchUp model. When I select what I want for a component, I get the XYZ axis superimposed on a random corner, and the whole program freezes. I have to force close, which results in loss of work.
Any ideas on how to fix this?
