<p>The SketchUp API has been around in some fashion since the early days of SketchUp, and with every release we have extended its capabilities. Read below for what's been changed.</p>
<p>Though our adoption rate to the latest version is quite high, it can take time after a release before everyone upgrades. If you are building scripts that rely on functionality from the most recent version, be sure to check the <span class='object_link'><a href="Sketchup.html#version-class_method" title="Sketchup.version (method)">Sketchup.version</a></span> to make sure your users are able to run your script:</p>
<pre class="code ruby"><code class="ruby"><span class='comment'># You do something like this in the initialization routine of your extension.
</span><span class='id identifier rubyid_version_required'>version_required</span> <span class='op'>=</span> <span class='int'>16</span>

<h3 id="label-Breaking+Changes+-+Per+Monitor+DPI+support">Breaking Changes - Per Monitor DPI support</h3>
<p>SketchUp 2025.0 introduced support for different DPI per monitor on Windows.</p>
<p>Related to this we have made changes to the Ruby API such that all screen coordinates are now in logical pixels. These changes are applied across Windows and macOS. Note that in this release only the Windows build will update the application DPI scaling factor to match the monitor the window is on.</p>
<p><code>Integer</code> arguments and return values for screen coordinates that are in pixels have been changed to be logical pixels. This means that the values are now scaled by <code>UI.scale_factor(view)</code>.</p>
<p>The old <code>UI.scale_factor</code> will return <code>1.0</code> as a compatibility shim.</p>
<p>These changes should require no or minimal changes to extensions. We also expect that many extensions that were never made DPI aware to now behave better with different DPI settings.</p>

<h2 id="label-Overlays">Overlays</h2>
<p>Overlays are a new SketchUp API capability which allows developers to persist extension behaviors while you are using other tools. Effectively, extensions can now continue to analyze, visualize, and create information in the modeling window as you continue evolving a SketchUp model using other native tools and extensions. Previously, extension developers were limited to drawing information to the modeling window only when their extension had a tool active .</p>

<p>Earlier versions of SketchUp printed the return values to Ruby Console commands different depending on platform. This has been made consistent following the pattern of Ruby's own IRB tool. A side effect of this is that the console now uses <code>.inspect</code> instead of <code>.puts</code> when printing the returned value which makes it less ambiguous in many cases. For example <code>nil</code> vs <code>""</code> that would otherwise print a blank line in both cases.</p>
