[REQ] Convert ALL components to groups?
-
Excuse me....A new version has been updated in the script's post.
-
and it works... wonderful!
thanks a lot, Matt666
-
What about G2C?
Is this still not possible at this time? -
well, that would be wonderful.
but I assume (having not a clue of ruby scripting), that it is very difficult to compare geometry. because that is what you had to do, if transforming several identical groups to components.
it gets even more complicated, if the instances (of the groups) are rotated or even scaled...but it would indeed be one of the most useful rubies.

Matt,
I get an error message on opening SU after copying in your .rb
[attachment=0:3hbnrx9w]<!-- ia0 -->C2G Ruby Error.jpg<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:3hbnrx9w]I ran the other .rb I received- it definitely works, exploding all top level comps and regrouping them, but I had to delete and purge 90% of the model as I think it would take about an hour of SU hanging before that model was fully converted. Would been a perfect task to have left running at lunchtime though!
Thanks again,
I get the exact same error. any solution?

Hi rfn,
You just have to add this line at the beginning of the script :require 'sketchup.rb'
I will update the script... thank you ! -
Hello.
here is a test which converts components to groups.
Not really tested...EDIT : See last version below
-
With SU 2017 if I select a few components script convert only one random from selection...
How can I modify it to convert every selected components to groups? -
10 Years later... this script almost does exactly what I need, but as Antiever pointed out it just does one from a selection. Anyone know how to fix this behaviour?

Hopefully Matt666 wont mind me editing his plugin. Tested in SU2017 in model with and without selections.
