I was facing the same issue thanks for the reply it has helped me a lot.

I just tested it in SU2019 and it works as expected. Perhaps if you share your model we can give you some help to tell you what the problem is. You could also try it with a very simple shape and see if you get a different result.

I actually tried it in Sketchup 2019.2 Nothing was happening at the beginning until I edit the SOURCE & TARGET "instance names" (not definition). It worked like a charm and It will make me save LOTS of time. You guys are champs! Tip: you can select all your source components in one go and enter their instance name in one time. Hope that helps anyone who got stuck:)

It is >4 years since I wrote it. I had forgotten it too !

@unknownuser said: What happen to this plugin? Would be so great to have it... Will save LOTS of time The plugin was my ComponentReplacement which can be found on my blog page. Click the "plugin" link then click download. It requires that the "source" instances be given the same instance name and the "target" instances also have the same instance name. The instance name is accessible through the Entity Info window.

quick off-the-cuff alternatives you might want to look into, there may be more: Camera Tools Curic Spin Camera Animate Rotation Camera Circle Camera Spiral

@schnydix, @Marc Schnyder, Is there support for this in newer/latest versions of SU?

I think that Martin is no longer active on this site... Did you look here ? http://www.martinrinehart.com/models/tutorial/downloads.html Remember that it is all a decade old !

Just wanted to add my thanks -- this plugin works perfectly!

@unknownuser said: Could 'guides at radial division' detect edges out of context (=nested in outer groups/components)? @rv1974: Yes it can

Any updates since 2017?

Nice, but where i can see the file size? is there a plug in that can do this?

@plot-paris said: really a great script. just in case you get bored, TIG some suggestions for a RandomSelect 2.0: some sort of soft selection (selection of nearly 100% at the centre and 0% at the outer areas of a circle... or selection density gradually fading from one side to the other). [attachment=0:1y6pbzy4]<!-- ia0 -->soft_selection.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:1y6pbzy4] or bitmap selection: load a bitmap file and use the grey values for selection density... several selection sets out of one selection: you select all the entities and then, using the script, select only lets say 25% of them. now you transform/move/paint them. then you click the selection button again and get the next 25% of the initial selection... and then the next 25%... and finally the remaining 25%... (at the moment I am using a hidden layer, moving the transformed entities to that layer after each step) what do you think? usefull ideas? apologies for bringing this 10+ year old thread back up! but i am in need of such a tool which plot paris has suggested. anyone got some ideas???

Maybe you can use also Zorro2 + Explode view ?

It's a very easy fix - either the missing PNG specified in the HTML code needs adding to the HTML's file-set, or the HTML's code needs changing to find a PNG that does exists in its file-set. When I contacted thomthom before he got it fixed very quickly. But I've been in touch with thomthom by PM again recently - and this time it's taking much longer to fix !

Never mind. Thanks anyway. This one was free and was the one I remembered that existed. It is CompoScene's predecessor.

Thank you TIG

Maybe you could use TIG's Slicer. and skip the section cuts and groups from slice.

You do know that you're replying to a thread that's 8+ years old don't you?
