        I'm not sure if it is quite the same. It does some comparisons of edge lengths...

        Yes.
        Сreate an array of them, sort, compare. (Compare the array and not the length)

        In the plugin still has bugs.

        Here's a version of the plug

                Скрипт переводит группы в компоненты. одинаковые группы заменяет на один компонент.
                Вот для примера файл: смотрим статистику
                Pech_SU5.zip
                Состоит из групп, размером 756 кб, групп 155
                Выделяем все и применяем скрипт.
                Размер файла уменьшается на 500 кб

                PS: Скрипт ещё не закончен, ему не хватает точности, но все же довольно таки не плохо работает.

                      From Google Translate:

                      The script takes the group into components. The same group replaces one component.
                      Here's an example file: look at the statistics

                      Pech_SU5.zip
                      (290.92 KiB) Not downloaded yet

                      Consists of a group size of 756 kb, 155 groups
                      Select all and apply the script.
                      File size reduced to 500 kb

                      PS: The script is not finished yet, it lacks precision, but rather did not not work.

                              Thank you !

                              i don't know why, but with the file you put in line, i don't get the error message

                              it worked also on my computer: the plugin makes components out of groups if they are square boxes

                              From the test i made, the square boxes must have been made into a group and then duplicated, before the plugin is used; otherwise the plugin doesn't recognize them as identical and makes 2 different components

                              it could be possible maybe to make it work for other types of groups; by checking the distance between the corners of the bounding box, for example

                              i shall try

                                Hi Giro

                                I agree with you , when you tell "... must have been made into a group and then duplicated, before the plugin is used "
                                ... but, i don't understand the meaning of "square boxes" and "other types of groups"

                                for me, there are only 2 possibilty; a group and non-grouped entities!

                                Sincerely
                                Chri

                                  you are right

                                  i mixed the 2 condition, but only one is true: ""... must have been made into a group and then duplicated, before the plugin is used "

                                  this is very limitating, though

                                  I was planning to use this plugin on a sketchup model imported from solidworks using SIMLAB converter

                                  SIMLAB converts components into groups, and i was planning to use "components.rb" to convert them back to components

                                  it doesn't work; i shall try to tweak the plugin to make it work, using the position of the bounding box corners

                                    I have made a test with parts imported from STEP files ( using Moment Of Inspiration ).

                                    I noticed that when parts contains a lots of entities , it's common to have small differences after import

                                    Perhaps , you have this kind of problem with your file .
                                    ... so , the plugin cound not recognize almost similar components .

                                    Chri

                                      It might be an explanation, but not in any case

                                      i make a cube, grouping the faces
                                      i duplicate it
                                      i launch the plugin: they are both turned into instances of the same component

                                      now, i explode them
                                      turn again each one of them into a group
                                      and finally i launch the plugin: they are turned into instances of 2 different components

                                        Hello
                                        Here a little trick that can help you 😉
                                        The use of the cool plugin by Thomthom Components Comparison ☀

                                        As there are not yet system of instancied Objects / Group in Moi3D for export to Sketchup we must make a little tricky thing! 😄

                                        Say I have 2 Objects (here a cube duplicated) in Moi3D, I export them in 3DS Format
                                        Import in Sketchup / Explode one time
                                        so we have 2 Components triangulated named OBJ1, OBJ2
                                        Launch the Components Comparaison and Bingo we have now instancied Components! 😎
                                        Triangulation can be cleaned by plugin Clean Up by Thomthom again!

                                        Result will be the same with 2 different cubes but with the sames dimensions! 😉

                                        http://s6.postimg.org/nqap2pm4x/tictic.jpg

                                        With more complex objects there is something more to make!
                                        That is failing or one object is rotated!
                                        Failed ? 😮
