@dave r said: Maybe Number Components will do what you need. Interesting one DaveR.

I would like to see a shot of your setup and some details about the keyboard tray you are using. It sounds great!

Try this... module TIG module DefinitionReplacer def self.run() model=Sketchup.active_model defns=model.definitions model.start_operation("DefinitionReplacer", true) counter=0 defns.to_a.each{|defn| name=defn.name next if name=~/[#]/ defns.to_a.each{|d| n=d.name next unless n=~/[#]/ next unless d.instances[0] next unless n.split("#")[0]==name defn.name=name+rand.to_s d.name=name ins=d.instances defn.instances.each{|i| i.definition=d } ins.each{|i| i.erase! } counter+=1 } defns.remove(defn) } model.commit_operation puts "Processed #{counter} definitions" end#def end #module end #module TIG;;DefinitionReplacer.run() #to use, it assumes you have a number of component definitions [Com1, Com2, etc], #and you have already imported a similar set of edited ones into the model [Com1#1, Com2#1 etc]. #to run it, paste all of this into the Ruby Console, it should auto-run. #all instances of the original Com1 become Com1#1, renamed as Com1, #any instances of the previous Com1#1 are erased and its definition removed. #it's one step undo-able

@dave r said: Do you make different LO files or just change the export quality? I export 1 pdf from layout and then use adobe acrobat to save a copy as a reduced size pdf.

Good advice from Rich and Dave. Thanks!

Windows: for an extended extension (and not a simple plugin) with an own installer (EXEcutable) for a complete uninstallation (incl. e.g. program settings) you may want use the according uninstaller typically provided by the software control panel tool of the Windows control panel ("Win+R > control...").

Share the model file so we can see what you're working with.

Aha- well, I still don't understand how the licensing works...but restarting SketchUp made the latest toolbar available. And it appears there is NO 2D LINE STYLE tool! I used this a lot to make dashed and centerlines with thickness and color- out of groups of single lines.. Is this part of the extension gone???

Thank you Rich! Fantastic idea. This worked perfectly : ) I had another tip come in to try the extrude edges by vector to object tool. Transfer the edge to a surface, draw the chamfer curve and transfer back to the object. Loft the surface. A combination of this method as well as yours got me through this task. I appreciate your guidance. Thnx again

@dave r said: @pipinek said: Attached-please find a picture - the only button present is that in the middle. It would help if you'd show which extensions don't have a More Info button. All of the ones in your screenshot appear to have them. Thank you. I presented the extension window of one of machines. On which all icons has been visible. Not the other one. TIG's suggestion has solves the isdue.

Is this in SketchUp 2015 as your forum profile says you are using?

I just tested it in SketchUp 2023 and it works for me. Give more details about what you are working with. Share the model file so we can see what you have set up.
