.....

For a model ot a few kilobytes to 10 megabyte of substantial difference it is not, but my models ot 40 to 75 megabyte!

My model statistics:

Model 68.4 Mb:
Edges 485016
Faces 128906
Component Instances 6055
Groups 3078
Section Planes 4

P.S.
It was even necessary to write the analogue of SketchUp Text tool, because a standard tool begins to work very long.

Very good !

Alex, I have not run any tests on typename, but I use it regularly. Are you saying that it is much slower than .is_a?
Chris

Easily to check...
The more elements in the model - the better results script.

Hmm... .kind_of? is an alias for .is_a? - Is that fraction of a differences just some other random outside co-incidence?

I did a somewhat larger test. By the looks of it .is_a?, .kind_of? and .class are pretty much the same. I take the differences due to other system factors at the time of execution.

AT - SpeedTest:
is_a? - 0.89c
kind_of? - 0.782c
class - 0.875c
typename - 2.297c

Much larger test. (did have a few programs open while I did the tests.)

kind_of? - 16.141c

a tool bar will be very great with this script

I have lost a component somewhere in my drawing
to find it, I pasted a second one in a visible place
when I select this, the entity info clearly says Component (2 in model)
with the components window context menu, I selected all components
I thought then, if I could hide the rest of the model, I would easily spot where the original one is
but view/hide rest of model doesn't work unless you are inside the component,
which means you can select only one of both, and the other one is deselected
please help

View > Hidden Geometry ON will show all hidden objects.
If it's on a Layer that is OFF you won't see it though...
The Outliner will also show all instances that are on ON Layers...
You can select them in the Outliner and they select in the model.
