      Par contre la transformation en fil de fer, ou la dégradation progressive, sont très longue dès que l'objet dépasse les 200ko (voir même plantage !)
      Si tu as une solution.

      Wireframe and Simplify options are rather for components that are not too complex, but would be repeated hundreds times in the model.
      In this version 1.0, I did not optimize the generation of Ghosts actually, as my primary goal was to understand whether the concept would be useful.

      J'avais fait un post sur le bounding box, et je ne sais pas si toi tu est capable de le faire, j'aurais voulu un plugin qui me permette d'activer une vue type
      bounding box, comme quand le fichier est trop lourd et que sketchup dégrade l'image en remplaçant les objet par des bounding box. C'est pas la même utilisation que GHOSTCOMP, et ça m'aurait bien rendu service.
      Dans l'attente.

      You can generate a Bounding Box Ghost for all objects (do a Select All before generation). The problem is to have a view where Ghosts are activated while in other views they are not.
      This again underlines that it should be the SU Team integrating this type of dual appearance concept in the native Sketchup application. In Ruby script, there are too many limitations to make something clean, fast, safe and transparent to the model (i.e. without creating tons of hidden components, use a hidden layer, ...).

        Fantastic Fredo!!

        This is a plugin I will use very often (always?). finally a way to keep on editing those high poly scenes (trees, etc...).
        I agree that a feature like this should be standard SU stuff, but I am glad you made it into a plugin.

        Thanks. Much appreciated

                Another winner Fredo! I had a similar idea once but never got to implementing it. I also wanted to mention that I have been using your Round Corner script lately and it is incredible! Great work!

                  Thanks Dale. It shows that the Google SU team should have a closer look to what they could do natively in the Sketchup application, as this could be a useful complement to their quest for high-poly support.

                                Thanks a lot.
                                Actually, the best is to create a subfolder IMAGES_DJMX1 in the folder GHOSTCOMP_DIR_10 and put the icons there. Then in the Default Parameters dialog box for GhostComp you can enable these icons. This way, you are sure that they won't be overwritten in a next release of GhostComp.

                                    This is excellent for preparing renderings with tons of 3D vegetation, Thank you very much!
                                    An option to have just wireframes of the two bounding boxes options (recursive and simple) would be cool for the next version. ☀

                                          It looks like a problem of installation, most probably your Unzip programs not reconstructing the folder hierarchy.
                                          Check out the footprint of files and folder in the post and in the documentation.
                                          It seems that some users have this type of problem.
                                          By curiosity, which utility do you use to unzip the files?
