        Hi Faraz,

        Great plugin, thanks a lot for sharing!
        This could be really useful for me if the multiple component option works, what is the status on that? Looking forward to the next version...

        Daniel

          I guess you could have hedgehog lasagne. I wonder how many it would take to feed a family of four 😄

          Interesting plugin idea. Hmmmm....

            Just asking:
            Should the title of this thread follow the format for other plugins? Like [Plugin], beta or not, numerical revision, date?

            I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

              farazforoozan,

              Thank you for developing this script! There's a lot of potential here, specially if you get pretty savy with the excel formulas. I am personally hoping to use this as a space planning tool.

              It would be awesome if by simply imputting an area (M2, geometries can automatically be created. Also if the boxes can automatically be color coded according to a type or name.
              great job! do you plan to continue its development?

              Would you be open to collaboration on this particular script? I am not all that savy with code, but have very specific ideas on what I hope it can do. Please let me know if you can share your script and collaborate.

                Added a new rar file because the loader script is messing up a little bit. Soon I will be adding new options to the plugin if you have any good improvement advice I'll gladly hear it and consider it.

                    Update: now the input rotations also work. The file is now downloadable as an extension package. You install the package via Sketchup.

                    Hi and thanks for sharing this plugin with us.

                    I am new to Sketchup and I just wonder how the extention cab install via the Sketchup since the script has a .rbs ending and the only extention files Sketchup 2013 accepts are .rbz.

                    Is there something I have misunderstood here.

                    Cheers!~jmk

                      .rbs is a "scrambled" version of .rb, so you can just unzip the folder and put the content in SU's plugins folder like you do with a "normal" .rb file.
                      Also .rbz is a zipped .rb, so if you want you can rename it as .zip and then unzip it and put the content in plugins folder.

                        I wonder where this notion comes from. You aren't the first person who has written that here on the SCF forms. It isn't true, though. As Massimo wrote, you can drop the .rb file directly into the Plugins folder and restart SketchUp and it'll work.

                        In order to install the plugin via the Install Extension button, you do need a .rbz file.

                        You could rename the zip file to .rbz and use Install Extension, too.

                            Because the source is scrambled, so no one can fix it except the author.

                            I've sent a message to the author about upgrading the extension, and hopefully he will reply here

                            In its current form, there is no reason to install this in 2014 because it will never work.

                            Hi

                              Can this be used to select/deselect layers on scenes?

                              For example: Keyframe animation of 400 frames at 25 fps. Animation is perfect. I want to add a blinking light on/off every half second. Can this be used to add that light component on/off to a group of 14 frames and off for 14 frames via this type of programming?

                                      Hello, i would like to use your plugin to control the positioning of my models.
                                      The objects remain the same (there is no change of dimensions within those objects), the only values which I want to pilot from Excel are the positioning of these objects.

                                      Could your plugin help me do this ?
                                      If not, do you know a way to do this with your plugin (maybe by modifying the code)?
                                      Or even better, do you know a plugin that can do it ?

                                      Thank you for your time and for your work.

                                          May be I think you can adjust keyframe little bit more instead of 25 fps.
