      As usual when you think you have something finished a bug is found. I downloaded a model from the 3d warehouse, and attempted to make it dynamic. It seems to work exactly as planned until I enter the number 12 in the NumberOfRacks section of the Components option dialogue box. Then I only get 11 racks. It works fine when I enter 11 and 13. If anyone would care to take a look at it you can find it here: http://sketchup.google.com/3dwarehouse/details?mid=b313851cdf642864ffdd141d4f473266&result=4 Thank you.

        Hey cody,

        You can simplify the formula for the upright rack Copies attribute to:

        Copies: =rack!NumberOfRacks - 1

        Same, with the Crossbeam Components:

        Copies: =rack!NumberOfRacks - 1

        I don't have a good answer to what is broken; I would guess it has something to do with decimal rounding of the Copies attribute.

        Hi
