    Dear TIG,

    Sorry for being dense, but does this plugin calculate the C_of_G of a shape? I do not understand the reference to adding CofGs.

    Kind regards,
    Bob

          You need to use another tool 'Center of Gravity' to make the CofG tags first.
          It's here http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?p=229401#p229401
          I wrote this 'Reporter' for Bertier who wants to be able to report weights of objects etc after tagging them with CofG data...

            Use Xray mode...
            The tool is a utility not a presentation aid.
            You can always move the text-tag by editing the CofG group...

                    does this do Imperial Weights too?

                        If you use the 'imperial' measurements for the CogG volumes and density...
                        Possible units are "kg/m3", "tonnes/m3", "g/cm3", "tons/yd3", "lbs/ft3"
                        If others were preferred they could be added...

                          Both of these nouns are considered male, there is no reason behind this it is just the way the language works!
                          Similarly there are rules for female nouns such as:
                          un pรฉriphรฉrique is a peripheral
                          un graphique is a graph........................ ๐Ÿ˜•

                            excellente' sorry wrong language...

                            now another question... I know this is kinda off subject. what is the implication of this plugin, does this allude to a future where these weights could be transfered through shear force or straight line force?

                            the reason I ask is that I look forward to a time when I can build roofs, beams or arches and have their loads followed and measured.

                            SketchyPhysics got me excited about the possibility... that a model could have gravity and therefore transfer weight and force towards a central point.

                            thanks for another great plugin...
