      See attached pdf illustrating. Group of walls on right are 1 group. Walls on left split into individual groups. Model available if required.

      Cheers.

      Yes, please post the model. Make it version SU8 for max compatibility.

      Nothing is worthless, it can always be used as a bad example.

        See attached. Tell me, why is V8 so good? That's more than once I have heard good things about V8.

                Hi. Anyone know if there is a plugin / extension that splits a group of walls (the ground floor internal walls of a building for example) into individual walls (groups). Thanx

                Doesn't exactly duplicate your "after" groups but maybe it is close enough.

                Usage:

                1. Select the group of walls1. Plugins>SDM Tools>CorG Tool>Wall Groups

                Nothing is worthless, it can always be used as a bad example.

                  I think this works well. It seems to reverse some faces and there is a chamfered corner on one group as attached.

                  Can the same thing be done if the group is a component?, i.e. divides the major component into unique components?

                    The reversed faces is probably an easy fix. The chamfered corner, is more problematic since it requires trying to decide which wall should be extended. Components instead of groups should be easy enough to implement.

                        There is one definite advantage of having the corners mitered. It simplifies outside wall textures. A number of plugins do miter for this reason.
