              Not asking anything to be changed, however it took me some time to determine that what you call the "X axis" and "Y axis" can be any particular orientation. I was always trying to determine what the "X and Y axis" were while using the plugin. Lead to much frustration.

              I always wanted to be able to get inside the plugin and change the "X" to "1" and the "Y" to "2". To me that would have been more logical to remember, I wanted the "1's" and "2's" to align with each other.

              Thank you for your contribution.

                Hi Ken,
                You can also think that X represent the red axis, Y the green axis, just as when you locate/translate/rotate the SU axis system.

                  I really like your idea too because I'm not use to the "x,y,z" language yet. Just now getting orientated in the 3d space πŸ˜„

                  Thank You for the plugin Mr. Didier Bur.

                      it's an impressive plugin, almost equal to the Autocad's align tool. Autocad can scale the objet as it aligns, is it possible to do that with this plugin?
                      Thanks for your work, all of you are making sketchup a very advanced tool.

                            D'oh moment for me! 😳
                            I spent so long trying to align things using the rotate/protractor tools - when all I needed to do was type "Align" into the search box and intall this super plugin!

                            Many thanks Didier, you have made my Sketchuping so much easier!

                                    Hi,
                                    Here is an updated version of my align tool with a bug fix (components were deformed when non orthogonal axis were clicked). User guide also added.
                                    Regards,

                                    thank for sharing

                                      Didier, could you please add 'multiple copy' and 'preserve original instance' options (may be with say CNTRL key pressed once)?
                                      P.S. I hope I post in the right topic: is it Tools\Align command?
                                      (Align, align tool, align 2D, align 3D.. I'm confused a bit).

                                        Anyone experienced groups/components axes that cannot be hidden or erased?
                                        I've this plugin for quite long. But lately just realise that axes cannot be hidden or removed from the groups/components on the screen.
                                        How should i clear those axes after aligning groups/components?
                                        Thank you.

                                          You can change the visibility of the component axes here:

                                            I forgot to check that 😳
                                            Checked Window - Preference only several times.
                                            Seems that I forgot how to read and use SketchUp.

                                            Thanks a lot, Cotty.
