        Hi, I have installed the plugin but when i run SU it appears a Ruby Console Error, this:
        I use SU 8 for Mac & OSX 10.6.8

        Unfortunately the plugin was not tested on mac at all 😞 And I think, it will not work on mac...
        The point is that java-script code (which is used in web-dialog) is made to run properly in IE (because SU for MS Windows uses IE to display web-dialogs). I was hurry to publish LSS Matrix and forgot to mention about this in top post (I'll fix it now). In short current version of LSS Matrix is only for MS Win 😞

        So I must have some plugs who make some dysfunctions inside the V7 and V6!

        I will try to find the culprits!

        I hope that LSS Matrix is not a culprit itself 😄
        All methods encapsulated in classes as recommended to avoid naming conflicts, but maybe somthing was missed 😕

                  Ok Good news for you I have find the culprit 😉
                  For me in the V7 it was "SketchyPhysics"! Now groups and Component work fine! 😎

                  For the V6 I must find more 😄

                    Yes, plugin does not provide any helpers for array generation... but SU actually has its own built-in helpers ('Tape Measure' tool and 'Protractor' tool) so I decided not to bother on inventing my own helpers.
                    Actually plugin looks for 'difference' between transformations of initial and copy instance and then applies detected difference to an initial instance. Simple as that 😄
                    That's why it is necessary to pay careful attention to preprocessing stage. As a hint for more neat rotation array creation I can suggest to make an anchor point, that defines rotation center (using 'Tape Measure' tool for instance).
                    Another way to make sure, that all single elements will coinside after replication, is to model the whole element, which will be rotated, then apply rotation and shift transformation to set of elements once.

                    Постараюсь разобраться как можно быстрее. У меня диалог отображается корректно, пока не знаю, в чем именно может быть дело...

                      How does this tool differ from my old 'Grow' and 'Matrix' tools ?
                      Apart from you having to make the first changed copy...

                        I didn't know about these two plugins 😲 (honestly).
                        After brief look at 'Grow' description I found out, that 'Grow' plugin provides more functionality, than 'LSS Matrix'...
                        For example, I was only going to add scaling options, 'Grow' already has exponential and even Fibonacci options aside from linear 👍 .
                        As for me I was going to add a kind of adjustment curve (default option is strait line), which will give more power to affect replication results.

                              For me it's not inside the V6 Plugins folder that avoid Components to work! 😲 Maybe in Resource or other folders ❓
                              No problem because all works fine in V 7 (disable Sketchyphysics) 😉 or with groups inside V6 😉

                                  I think it's no good if it is necessary to disable Sketchyphysics 😞 I guess I need to find out how to coexist together with Sketchyphysics, since it is known as must have one (I don't have it personally, but I'm sure a lot of people do...)
                                  BTW, Pilou, great colorful sample 👍 It inspired me to make LSS Matrix 'color aware' in future versions and process colors of replicated groups as well as transformations. I mean to make result groups colors as gradient between source group and copy group. But it will work only if the whole group has one single color, I guess... But it has to be fun too 😄

                                        Looks like it is better for me to focus on 'LSS Toolbar' update instead of bothering on colors handling within 'LSS Matrix' 😄 since there are ready-made yet powerful tools for color processing by talented plugins authors 👍

                                          It's not exactly the same than a real gradiant between the start and end 😉
                                          Only if objects are on a vertical straigth line !

                                          So you can make your own code gradient between object 😉
