Sketchup 2022, tried doing it on 2024 but same problem.
Mac Studio OS
Ventura

Maybe not connected with each other, but happened a day before my license was automatic renewed.

Do you have multiple monitors? Or was it the case in the past?

Please try this:

  • Close SketchUp
  • Go to C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Local\SketchUp\SketchUp 202X\SketchUp
  • Open PrivatePreferences.json with a text editor like Notepad
  • Remove these sections:
        "WebCommonDialog_skatter_composition": {
            "Height": 696,
            "Left": 279,
            "Top": 356,
            "Width": 253
        },
        "WebCommonDialog_skatter_composition_manager": {
            "Height": 578,
            "Left": 1220,
            "Top": 330,
            "Width": 600
        },
        "WebCommonDialog_skatter_preferences": {
            "Height": 700,
            "Left": 91,
            "Top": 50,
            "Width": 450
        },

(The numbers will be different, but you need to remove the whole sections named “WebCommonDialog_skatter_composition”, “WebCommonDialog_skatter_composition_manager”, and “WebCommonDialog_skatter_preferences”)

  • Save the file and close it
  • Open SketchUp, the Skatter window position should be reset to the default

Let me know if that works.

Hi,

I only have one screen connected but when I opened preferences there were 2 screens showing…
I put the second non connected screen on synchrone with the first.
Now skatter is showing again!
A bit weird because I never changed anything there.

Thanks for the help!
Greetings,

Christophe
