        If only the Ruby API wasn't so limited...

        I'd ideally like to be able to select multiple files and/or folders. Also wish the file pattern filter wasn't bugged so one could combine multiple file patterns... 😞

          Idea... β˜€ ...using HTML5, a webdialog can act as a drop pad for files. Just dump a selection of files, rbz, zip or plain rb files and install in bulk!!

            Thomas, this is a great idea! Is it possible for the plugin to also run load"plugin_name.rb" after copying the file and installing it into the Plugins folder?

                Yep, but it would make a better stand-alone "Drop Pad" plugin that can dispatch various file types to user-configurable plugins.

                  You mean being able to configure what plugin to handle what fileformat?

                    Yeah, but the downside is that the plugins that handle the file types would likely all need modified to handle the Drop Pad dispatcher.

                        hm... you meant for the pad to dispatch to existing plugins...?

                          any plans to further advance this into a full fledged plugin manager that allows u to uninstall plugins too?

                          Sketchup Make 2017 (64-bit), Vray 4.0 , Windows 10 – 64 bit, corei7-8750H, 16GB RAM, Nvidia GeForce GTX 1050Ti 4GB

                            Nope! It's too big of a project - I have too many other projects on my hand. But Dana is working such a manager. πŸ˜„

                                It is under development - along side with a plugin repository.

                                        As Dave said - it's done when it's done. He's working on it along side his full time job - like I do. Making it very hard to promise a deadline. (It's hard even if it is your full time job any way... 😞 )

                                          Hmm.... IE10 might not come until Windows8 is out... I hope it comes earlier - as I think Windows 8 comes late this year.
