I have had some pretty buggy experiences importing Sketchup files. Unfortunately the only solution I’ve found requires Sketchup Pro.

In Sketchup Pro create your item then export it to a 3D DWG file (autoCAD format). When you import the item into 20-20 be sure that you’ve selected 3D dwg (as opposed to 2D dwg, which is the default). This imports the item every time without fail for me.

Unfortunately I have not been able to determine what makes certain parts of the item stay editable as far as selecting finishes (sometimes grouping parts of the sketchup file – inside of sketchup, that is – accomplishes this, sometimes it doesn’t). If anyone has this figured out please let me know!
