Unfortunately with the same result.

The problem is that the dialogue uses InternetExplorer. If the dialog window could use something else, then the problem would be fixed!

from sketchup-stl.

SketchUp makes use of the native operating system's browser engine which under Windows is IE and under OSX is WebKit. Extensions cannot exchange the engine used.

(I thought Wine used a wrapped around an embedded Mozilla control to simulate embedded IE?)

@Aerilius - don't you use SketchUp under Wine? Thought I saw a screenshot of you using Wine with webdialogs in use...

@DeeKey, please refer to the guides at https://sites.google.com/site/sketchupsage/problems/linux
To use SketchUp in Wine, you need to install a version of Microsoft's IE (IE8) is unfortunately the "latest" version supported by Wine). The embedded winegecko does not bring all the goodness of Mozilla's Gecko, there are still some not working JavaScript functions in Wine's layer to emulate IE.

When posting bug reports to SketchUp or plugins, if possible, check first whether a bug in Wine is plausible, you can also ask in the SketchUp forum.

I was able to solve the problem!
Installed 32bit Sketchup2014, installed IE8.
Was not able to solve the problem with SketchUp 2015 as it requires Windows7 which has no IE8 support.

BTW, the guide above is outdated!
Better follow instructions here in comments:

Yes, the target is always moving, someone needs to update the guide.

It is still recommended to install Microsoft's IE over Wine's wrapped Gecko (although it is very far advanced it just interrupts script execution when it encounters an uninmplemented function, this can lead to issues just similar like this). Windows 7 comes with IE8 by default (unfortunately). Wine's Windows 7 mode can run MS IE8 (only no newer IE9+).
