      ...i just can't seem to get it right.
      it tried several scripts so far, but none have given me the desired output.
      i even used the generate report function withing SU7PRO.

      what i want is this:

      i would liket to select a group or component or several things within a SU model,
      then run a script within SU that asks me where to put the file and how to name it.
      it should give me one of the following:
      .CSV with attributes NAME and AMOUNT
      or
      .TXT same as above
      or
      .PDF (would be nicest)

      i need no other attributes.

      the thing is i could us componentreport.rb, but it creates a default within a fixed folder.
      i could use componentreporter+, but it wont list me the amounts.
      i could use the generate report from SU7, but it wont list me the amounts.

      and i have to vreate a lot counts from different parts of my models..

      what should i do?

      thx 4 any kind of advice...

        what i do with the reports:

        i need to make lists of parts within my models to give them to someone else
        to be able to order the right amounts...of whatever i select within SU

          i already had v1.6.
          works prety good thanks πŸ˜„

          maybe i could also use the additional listing of LAYER attributes.
          it creats a component report, which tells me names and amounts.
          it creates an instance report, which tells me which layer its on.

          could i maybe create a combination?

          =.csv telling me NAME; NUMBER; LAYER ?

          thx alot...

                That v1.6 was ComponentReporter+ this is ComponentReporter++ (v1.1) that does slightly different things...
                It puts the reports in the same folder as the model...
                You could hack a UI.openpanel() to get the folder from a picked file in it ?
                I've tried to write it so it's reasonably self-evident - try small tweaks to see if you can do what you want...

                .
