Hello, Component Finder is a great extension. In a future release could you please allow a way to see the file path somewhere?...
Done!
Check the 2nd and 3rd points before last in the previous post. -
Does this show components in model or only saved libraries?

Currently only saved libraries. ‘In model’ is on our list...

Here is a new video explaining ComponentFinder by TutorialsUp:

Good news!
You can now browse and search through your In-Model Components and Groups with ComponentFinder!

Hi Halroach! Thank you for your wonderful plugin!!! It's extremely useful!!
I have a small issue though: sometimes the "loading you rlibrary" phase doesn't stop, so basically I can't use the plugin. If I restart the pc, everything works fine.I'm rurring on a SU2018...

Hi Pibuz,
Are you able to pinpoint in what situations this happens? Does it happen if specific folders were open in a previous session? Does the loading phase happen in the middle when you're working or only when Sketchup starts? -
Hi Hal! Thanks for your reply!
I'm actually using the plugin to visualize one single folder (with all its subfolders obviously) and I have about 60 models to report, not so much. I still haven't mapped the cases in which I encounter the issue, but I will in the next days! I'll let you know immediately!Thank you so much!

Hi! I'm back with some additional info: this morning I had this issue when opening a new sketchup project, while in the previous file I had the "component finder" window active with an ongoing search word.

Meet ComponentFinder - our new super convenient tool, designed for, not merely browsing your library, but for actually finding the components you need. Easy, fast and all within SketchUp!
-
Enhanced Browsing - Choose the best way to view your components (navigation or flat-files)
-
Powerful Search - Quickly filter through your open tabs and components
-
Zoom In / Zoom Out - See larger or smaller component thumbnails
-
Save Components - Save components into ComponentFinder directly from Sketchup
-
Open multiple tabs at once - Select multiple folders from your local library and add them into ComponentFinder, all at once
ComponentFinder is an evolution of the FlexTools Favorites Library. It will now work with all components, not only with "flex".
Coming Soon!
The current version does not seem to be able to completely remove the component toolbar that has been created, and it cannot be removed from the SU view toolbar.

You need the left side to display the tree classification directory, which can only be returned level by level, which is very inconvenient. The tree folder operation is unified on the left side, and it is convenient to display only the model on the right side.

Hi Apollo,
Sometimes it can take sketchup 2 restarts to properly update the toolbar interface correctly.
Close the generated toolbar, restart sketchup. Make sure the toolbar is still closed (and was not opened again, or open in another session of sketchup) and restart sketchup again.
Please let me know that it works out ok.

I am not totally sure I understand what you mean. What I can say is that when viewing 'In Model' components, it will display them the same way how Sketchup's In Model components are viewed in the Components Tray. You can either view the first level (root) component definitions OR all the sub-components in the model.
