      It is getting really great - BIG THANKS!!
      Can We have an option to append the layer name or/and numbers to the existing component's/group's names?

        That is good suggestion so lets see if it can be added to next update. πŸ‘

          Amazing! Really Really good. A great companion to this is "Layers Panel" - photoshop layers window with nested layers. still in Beta and some wrinkles to iron out but, Like this plugin, very impressive!!

          All i could say on a negative - could we have a smaller window? it takes up alot of space and we know the name of it, if we lost the logo (sorry), at least i'd get back half my screen. πŸ˜†
          cheers for the great plugin

            You can make the content smaller by pressing ( ctrl - ). What is the resolution of your screen...can I see screen capture?

            In the future maybe collapsible tabs may help but not sure.

            Thanks

            I never knew this!!! Duh!

              I am a big fan of "Layers Panel" and think everyone should have it...Can't recommend it enough! http://sketchucation.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=488833#p488833

              Next update should have smaller windows and I agree that the logo is taking too much space.

              Thanks for feedback...cheers! πŸ‘

                [pre:2yc1rtr7]Authors:: | Bagatelo| Renderiza |
                Plugin Name:: Rename by Layer
                Version:: 1.0.3
                Date:: 9/17/2013
                Cost:: Free[/pre:2yc1rtr7]
                Rename by Layer v1.0.3 is now available for download.
                %(#909090)[What is new:

                • The web-dialog is smaller
                • Keep existing name - This will include the existing name to the newly created one. For example:
                  Layer = bed
                  Existing name = door
                  Add Number = True / Prefix

                Result = 001 - bed - door]

                Again thanks for feedback! πŸ‘

                Note: Need to recheck "Keep existing name" feature since its not working...will try to fix it as soon. πŸ˜•

                  Fixed the "keep existing name" feature but in the mean time it should work only on groups.

                    Unbelievable Renderiza, your plugin is now able to rename without changing name? What a paradox... If I didn't see it with my own eyes I wouldn't think it was even possible!

                    Thank you again,

                      I have an idea....
                      Its struck me that as I work I'm naming as I go. If i do bulk renaming then i really need all the options of the window, If I'm naming as I go then I don't...
                      to save opening it each time could the last parameter/settings just be stored and a Shortcut key can be assigned. I just press the shortcut and viola .....
                      no need to open the window and change the settings
                      Speed increased

                        This is really good idea!

                        I first need to become familiar with storing web-dialog parameters/settings with maybe 'HTML5 Web Storage'. After learning how to do that I will try to integrate you suggestion. πŸ‘

                        Thanks!

                            Hi,

                            It seems HTML 5 localStorage & sessionStorage can't work locally without having a server installed so that means I can't use that technology. 😒

                            Hopefully I can have more luck with 'Sketchup.write_default'. πŸ˜’

                            Thanks!

                              I'm looking for a plugin or a script that would clear the name field of all components and groups. I tried yours, but i need to do it one component at a time. Any idea of how I could clear all of the names at the same time? Even for nested components and groups?

                                You can rename a selection of multiple components with this plugin. I never tried renaming to a clear name though.

                                  Thank you JQL. It works with multiple components and groups at the same level but not with nested components. And I am able to clear the name by hitting the space bar in the "enter text" area.
                                  It would be really useful to clear all the names at one time.

                                      This is a great plugin... but... I can't get the icon to go away. I am on a Mac Yosemite, SketchUp 2015 and 2016 had the same problem. Install the extension, close the toolbar, restart SketchUp and the tool bar appears again.

                                      Otherwise, wonderful extension.

                                        I think you'll need to edit the plugin yourself...
                                        I'll see if I have a copy and what line needs the tweak...

                                          Thanks John. I have done that with most plugins... once someone points me to the code or the line...
                                          But I'm not at all capable or writing Ruby... so I thought I'd ask.

                                            without testing...
                                            in the menu ruby, you need to change line 63 rnd_renamer_tb.show

                                            		rnd_renamer_tb.restore
                                            

                                            it should then honour last state...
