      Hi,

      I have have a scene which has lots of 2D trees.
      These are the default "Tree_2D_Semirealistic_Pine3.skp" which comes supplied with SketchUp.
      I scaled them too much vertically and then saved the file.
      I need to return them to their original size.
      I can use the the right-click menu and select "Reset Scale" to correct each individual component, but I don't want to have to select all the trees individually and do this manually one by one.
      I have tried the "reload" option but the replacement component (whether it be my original choice or another component) loads with the scaling alterations I made still effecting them.
      Anybody have any ideas how to solve this?

      Thanks
      Mr S

        can't you just select all of them together (by right-clicking on the component in the component dialog box) and rescale the bunch?

            Hi,

            I found a workaround solution.
            My main problem was that the trees are spread over a very uneven terrain.
            Rescaling them all in one go caused some to sink and others to float above their ground level.
            So, I selected all the trees and moved them upwards about 20 metres vertically.
            I then scaled them to the size required.
            Then I re-used the "Drop at Intersection" ruby script.
            All trees are now back to their own ground level and sized as I wanted.
            Great!

            Regards
            Mr S
