        This what my doctor ordered, a full dose of axes tools. When making game model in sketchUp I always adjust the axes to fill the game need but i just can't get it centered on the object fast enough. This plugin sure cured that problem.

          Hi, I have created a simple box model in free Sketchup 8 and want to set the origin of the model's bounding box to exactly its center. I tried with this plugin but after running it on my model in Sketchup nothing happens.

          Is this Axes Tool / Insertion Point Plugin not the correct solution for my needs, or have I missed something here?

          Thanks!

            Are you trying to set the axis of your model or a component?

            This plugin only changes the axis of selected groups/components - not the model axis.

                    It doesn't rotate the axis, it simply moves the origin of the components - the insertion point.

                    Though, it could be made to also rotate the axis to match the current model axis.

                    Hi Thomthom - is the above possible. Used your Axes plugin a lot (thanks) but wonder whether you are able to add this functionality in to it. Being able to align the axis to the model axis would be great. I started a thread here

                    but thinking about it this thread is probably a better place for it.

                    Thanks

                      Is there a tool or method that will allow a selection of components to acquire the axis of another component all at once?

                          Hello ThomThom,
                          can you update the plugin for SU2018 because does not work like on versions before.
                          Thanks
