The primary time I run a code which comprises UI.messagebox, all the time seem my colour palette. does anybody know the rationale?
If I shut the palette and run once more the code it doesn’t occur.
Irrespective of how lengthy is the code it occurs solely the primary time.
a easy instance:
sel = Sketchup.active_model.choice.first
UI.messagebox(sel.definition.title,MB_MULTILINE)
(I’m on Home windows so, I do not know what the colour palette is … 
For positive in Home windows there may be some points with dialog packing containers – might not associated right here – on first launch of SU2023.)
Attempt it with SU 2022 or SU2023.01 (23.0.396). Do you’ve got an identical points?

I’m utilizing Sketchup 23.0.396
I can reproduce this conduct.
I believe it’s yet one more instance of a long-standing bug in SketchUp for Mac that the devs have by no means defined or fastened. SU on Mac typically spontaneously prompts the paint software and opens the “colours” (supplies) dialog when some unrelated occasion happens, together with opening or closing a dialog. Generally going again to the choose software from an extension will set off it. Since no one appears to know why it occurs, I’ve discovered to curse quietly, hit area bar to get again to the choice software and shut the colours dialog. As on this instance, it often occurs as soon as after which you’ll be able to go a very long time earlier than triggering it once more.
Trimble is within the strategy of changing SketchUp to make use of the Qt library for the GUI (Home windows 2023 was transformed as step one). I hope which will right this bug since no one on the group seems to have the ability to achieve this within the present GUI.
