Model size
-
I have a large model size (25MB) and I am wondering if there is a way to be able to see the size of the various components and items within the model?
I've exported as a .dae file to see the texture file sizes but It's the actual size of the parts of the model I'm interested in.
Any suggestions much appreciated.
Thanks.

Sort of.
Assuming you have a train, delete everything but the locomotive. File/Save As ... locomotive.skp. Load again. Delete everything but the caboose. File/Save As ... caboose.skp. And so on.
File/New. File/Import locomotive.skp. File/Import ... through caboose.skp. After each import, click the origin. Each piece will be a separate component in the completed model. Clicking the origin will reassemble perfectly.
And each piece will be much friendlier to work with than the 25MB full model.
Trick: open locomotive.skp. Create a layer named locomotive. Select all. Use Entity Info to move everything into the locomotive layer. Save. When you import, your completed model has a layer named "locomotive" with a single component, also named "locomotive".
