Center the view on selected object

[ZackJords]

In Autodesk Maya(not quite sure about others) you can press F or A to center the camera view on selected object.im not quite sure you can do this on sketchup or not.after using sketchup for awhile (7years) i keep wondering either this could be complish via plug ins or not..Thank you

In Sketchup, it requires just a little Ruby code

mod = Sketchup.active_model
sel = mod.selection
vue = mod.active_view
bb = Geom;;BoundingBox.new
sel.each{|e|bb.add e.bounds}
cam = vue.camera
cam.set cam.eye,bb.center,Z_AXIS

You can add

vue.zoom sel

if you want a closeup view.
