      Hi,
      I generate plugin by various parts and then summarize them into one group.
      This works very well:

      mogroup = entities.add_group elements

      Now I want to pick this group also right at the end of the plugin via Ruby code. So I not have to select the just created group by using the mouse.

      Can anyone help me?

      Thank you!

      Greeting
      Andreas

      With best regards from Germany

      Andreas

          If you want to clear any previous selection first use...
          Sketchup.active_model.selection.clear
          then
          Sketchup.active_model.selection.add(mogroup)
