  • You may try this
    1. Select all (CTRL-A on PC or CMD-A on Mac or Edit menu --> Select All)
    2. Use Edit Menu --> Make Component since the selection is probably not visible.
    3. Give your component an easily recognisable name.  Check the box labeled Replace Selection with Component.  If you have no component or group, make a group since there will be only this one in your model.
    4. Open the Outliner window if it is not already opened.  There shall be a new component (or group) in the list.
    5. Do a right click on the name of the new component (or group) to bring up a contextual menu.
    6. Choose Zoom Extend.  This will do a zoom extend only on this component (or group), which happens to be your model.
    7. Explode the component (or group) and save the model since the axes may behave strangely afterward.  They did on my PC after 200 rolls of the wheel.

  • Get your way back:
    • Click … Window > Ruby Console
    • Copy the following; paste it in the Ruby console; press Enter
    • Sketchup.active_model.active_view.camera.set([100,-100,100], [0,0,0], [-0.235702, 0.235702, 0.942809])
