OpenStudio SketchUp Plugin 1.6.0 - IDF Import/Export Version

Is there a way to import an idf file version 23.1.0 into Sketchup using OpenStudio SketchUp Plugin 1.6.0 ? Or is the plugin limited to version 9.5 and below?

OpenStudio SketchUp Plugin 1.6.0 exports idf files in the 9.5 version of EnergyPlus. And when I try to import a EnergyPlus 23.1.0 idf file into SketchUp the geometry of the model gets corrupted as you can see in the images below:
