    We can only help if you tell us why it does not work. By the way: http://hrvooje.blogspot.nl/2015/11/how-to-install-sketchup-2016-in-ubuntu.html – Rinzwind Jan 10 '16 at 17:26

See the post: Install Google Sketchup on Ubuntu 14.04

From this I understood that you need to:

type on the terminal:

winecfg

In Wine Configuration window:

1.Change Windows Version to Windows 7 in the bottom of the Applications tab.

2.Under Libraries tab, select ‘Riched20’ library from the drop-down list and add it Wine configuration

This should work for 2016 too.

  • Link only answers are not accepted on askubuntu. And he is asking about the 2016 version on 15.10. Knowing WINE ... it is a big deal and the WINE version will be crucial for it to work. – Rinzwind Jan 10 '16 at 17:28
  • If Sketchup won't start and/or complains about mfc100u.dll, follow the instructions here: http://jesselongacre.com/blog/2015/oct/installing-sketchup-2015-64-bit-ubuntu-1404-using-wine-17#comment-66444

    In short, do this: WINEPREFIX=$HOME/.WineSketchUp/ winetricks --force vcrun2010
