        Thom, how about a call out on how many poly's have been used?

          You mean triangles?

              Ah, cool one, never seen that before, thanks Rich.

              Thom, I guess there is a lot more to it than just reporting amount of faces as SU does not use triangles, they are n-gons.
              Kinda hard to figure out SU's limit due to this inconsistency, had it been triangle based one could get a clearer idea.

                If you export your model to 3ds or dae, it will get triangulated. When re-importing without merging co-planar faces, you get a clearer poly count with triangles.

                  Can extract the internal triangulation. SU makes that available to the API. My Probe plugin lets you inspect how SU triangulates faces.

                    Ok. Did a quick update - added triangle count if you choose Extended Model Info. (Note it's at least three times slower.)

                      this is interesting...

                      when you choose statistics, you have 2 options:

                      entire model (that's what you exported)
                      components

                      could you do the same job, but for "components" instead, and precisely with the developped hierarchy?

                              i think i might have a solution coming, but since it is not finished, i have to wait

                                    Thomthom, thank you for this cool plugin. I have noticed an odd thing, though. I copied and pasted a few components from a file called "spinet desk" to a new file and saved it as a new file. Evidently the plugin is still looking at the other, closed original file and giving the stats for that as well. Or is it possible the console isn't cleared when switching to a different SKP file? Is it possible to clear the contents of the console before processing and displaying a new run of the plugin?

                                      The console output is not interactive. Just a history of the output. You find the latest output at the bottom. Notice that in your screenshot it says "Drawer.skp" further down.

                                      I have a Windows hack I could add. Don't know how to do it for OSX. ...but you might have some that don't want it cleared... I'd rather not add too many options to this. It's just a quick and dirty plugin.
