        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

          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

                  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
                          5p more earned
                          earlier home by three seconds
                          c

                            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‘

                                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...
