      The way I calculate area in SU for functional layouts is by using "material area" calculations. Several Components (simple boxes) that represent different functions (office, retail, cinema) are painted on the bottom with the same material. I can stretch and move these boxes till im happy. Then i check this material area and i know my project total. Very convenient. What i was wandering, is there a plugin that can display this value in real time? Sort of a dash board. This way, i can see my total area while im changing it,without digging into menues every time i want to see it?

            It doesnt update the numbers as i modify the objects but it makes it a bit easier to access the data. Thank you for the advice

              How about this ?

              A suite of text tagging tools, showing the picked face's area, updates with face changes, export report etc.

                Nifty Plug. Doesn't update real time. It is a small step up over the original leader tool as it is possible to update. However, the fact that I have to dig in into the component to update cancels all the fun.
                Ideally,
                1.it would place a disconnected tag (so it always floats in the corner).
                2. Give real time update
                3. able to reference total material area.
                4. Tag without getting into the component
