Yes I think that joint use of theese two plugins can make sinergetic effect

For now local resources available only in Russian. I don't know yet how to lokalize to any other language, since I good only in Russian and more or less in English (lower or maybe mid-intermediate level, I guess).

Классный инструмент! Кирилл, Спасибо огромное!

[pilou]

Interpolate Move + Rotation is very cool!
Exploration will be endless

Seems there is a bug! (tested with V7 )
Works fine with Components
Don't work with Groups : drawing faces is not effective when pressing Apply!

Well, I tested attached skp file in SU7, it was processed fine just like in SU8.

Actually, there are no special API methods used in plugin, that requires the latest version of SU, so I think everything has to work fine even in SU6 (I just don't have it now, so it is difficult to find out).

Tested, very good,Has been translated in Chinese,Thank you lss

Hi, I have installed the plugin but when i run SU it appears a Ruby Console Error, this:

I use SU 8 for Mac & OSX 10.6.8

[pilou]

Yes you right works fine inside the V6 for theGroups
But now not for the Components!

So I must have some plugs who make some dysfunctions inside the V7 and V6!

I will try to find the culprits!

Unfortunately the plugin was not tested on mac at all And I think, it will not work on mac...
The point is that java-script code (which is used in web-dialog) is made to run properly in IE (because SU for MS Windows uses IE to display web-dialogs). I was hurry to publish LSS Matrix and forgot to mention about this in top post (I'll fix it now). In short current version of LSS Matrix is only for MS Win

I hope that LSS Matrix is not a culprit itself
All methods encapsulated in classes as recommended to avoid naming conflicts, but maybe somthing was missed
