      Could be useful to extend the turn-off-layer ability to groups and components too (if they're made of homogeneous sub-entities). What do you say?

      That will make the tool very slow when interacting with groups/components of heavy meshes as it'd involve inspecting all related elements.

        Yes...you're right... Think about some trees or cars! 😒

          not in the tools drop down menu ...

          You screenshot shows the Plugins menu...
          The tool is under the Tools menu - named "Hide Layer by Pick"

                This is a very useful tool! Thank you very much!
                But there is no button on the toolbar panel. How to make a button?

                        Is there something like "Put selected objects on a new layer and hide this Layer".

                                I am not seeing the tool in the menus. Why does the icon appear without a blue 'book'?

                                    all done, but still not seeing 'hide layer by pick'................sorry, I do see it. did not realize I had to re-start sketchup when using this new method of installing extensions. however, the functionality of the extension seems to be amiss. maybe it's conflicting with my layers panel extension.
