      Hello,

      I'm finding plugin which can put component or group onto the terrain.
      Like put many trees onto the hill in the same time.

      I think I used to try this plugin but I can't remember the name of this plugin.
      Please tell me if you know the name.

      Thank you.

        Well, there's Didier Bur's Component Spray, and maybe Chris Fullmer's Components onto Faces? I think these are the authors, and I think these are their scripts. Correct me, if I am wrong.
        There may be others in the Plugins Index. Also, check Didier Bur's Ruby Library Depot and maybe Smustard?

        These are just off the top of my head- what's left of it. You know, kinda tangled up in a few hairs here and there.

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          Thank you, mitcorb. I found what I seek now, it's smart drop (by a4chitect).
          But it's still not correct to my need. My problem is show in the image below.

          All of these boxes are group and when I use smart drop, they will put perpendicular to the surface.
          I just want it straight drop and touch surface only. πŸ˜„

            Then you can use my Raytracer plugin: http://forums.sketchucation.com/viewtopic.php?t=30509
