Cost Estimator

[jaktavia]

Is there a plugin, other than the free cost estimator, that allows you to continually keep track of each material with a price per square foot? With the free estimator that sketchup comes with, you have to explode your entire model for it to work and continually check it if you change something.

Is there a plugin that continually keeps track of the square footage per material and can you assign a price per square foot to a material that will update real time? Basically an excel spreadsheet that continually updates itself.

Thank you.

You are going to need a more advanced CAD program like solidworks or autocad. There is nothing available that I have ever heard of. Although you could measure the area of the surface and multiply that out manually.
