          All right, I got the video made and uploaded. Check it out if you have any questions about what this plugin does.

                Big thanks.

                After initial test I dont think I expressed what I wanted very well. Could be that english is not my native language or that I was tired. 😉
                Anyway. What I would like is another option: the center of each components bounding box at the bounding box min (in Z).
                Many Groups or components dont have the axis at the center (if you're lazy like me)
                So that option would also be great.

                  So yes cool suggestion! ☀
                  Maybe not change the axis but yes take the middle of the Box z mini 😉

                    Sure, that should be easy enough to put in place. There are quite a few good bounding box control options built in, so it should not be too hard to find the center of the "bottom" of the bounding box. Hopefully it will work even after the component is rotated on its head. I would imagine that in that scenario it would still be preferable to use the same point that would be used if the component were not on its head, right? So the point should be the same on the component, no matter what the orientation of the component is?

                    Thanks for the feedback and positive comments. I'll see what I can do. Its early morning here right now and I'll be gone much of the day at a St.Patricks Day (US Holiday) parade in San Francisco. When I get home this afternoon I'll get back to work 😄

                      Ei Chris, thank you for the manuscript, I liked a lot.
                      But... maybe you can improve the manuscript for increasing a function of rotate objects randomly.
                      This can be very good tool to work with 3D plants or similar.

                      Thanks anyway.

                            Don't think I've forgotten about your request Jan. I have a working version that does what you asked for. But it was remarkably more difficult to code that I had expected due to some faceme component issues. But I think I've got it worked out. There are just some bugs that I need to work out. But otherwise, its almost ready. As soon as I get some to put into it, I'll get the next version released.

                            Glad others are finding it useful, thanks for commenting!

                              Good to hear. I was about to ask about your progress.
                              What about rotation?

                                I missed this one, thanks Chris.

                                I agree a random rotate in with it would be excellent, but it is easy to request these things when you are not the one creating them!

                                  All right, wishes granted! I just updated this script and it now has the "Component Base" scale point option as suggested by Jan. Sorry it took so long to implement. I kept hitting little speedbumps along the road with that feature. I think it is working quite well now.

                                  I've also added rotation. It rotates on the same base point as the scaling.

                                  I also updated the video in the first post to explain the new features. Here's a full feature list for the version 2.0 update:

                                  • Fixed a bug where it didn't let you scale items more than once using Axis. Should work over and over now.
                                  • Added "Component Base" support for those of us who don't set our component axes. This uses the bottom center of the component.
                                  • Added much more reliable FaceMe component support (I hope).
                                  • Added Rotation capability. Uniform and random with user specified min/max values.

                                  I tried to test it thoroughly, but its possible there are still bugs. Let me know (as I'm sure you will) if you find something,

                                    I forgot to mention that I changed the filename (sorry). It was clf_scale_multiple.rb. That should be deleted. And then install the new one which is clf_scale_rotate_multiple.rb
