[Request] Randomize Plugin

CADAddict

Hi,
I often though it would be useful to have a randomize plugin. Sorry if it exists but couldn't find it.
The use of this plugin would be to select a bunch of instances of a component and randomize them. understand for randomize them as to change their scale and rotation with certain configurable parameters.
This would be extremely useful for situations like site modeling. Once we placed all the instances of our tree component, it would be great to be able to randomize them, so they don;t look all the same in terms of size and rotation giving a bit more of a realistic feeling to the model.
If anyone has or knows a plugin that can do that, let me know. Thanks!

Check out TBD's randor.rb - just what you want for randomizing tree sizes and rotation. Best used in concert with drop.rb.

Maybe also this one?

My Matrix / Proximity makes a X x Y x Z matrix of a selected component BUT you can randomize the XYZ spacing, XYZ rotation, XYZ scaling etc... Also has a 'drop' function...

Thanks to all for your replies,
I think Chris Fullmers "Scale and Rotate Multiple" does exactly what I wanted.
Thanks Chris and thanks massimo to point to that plugin
