How to make plugin bundles in Extension tools?
-
Looking at my SU Extension tools 3.0 I have several bundles. However, I'd like to make a new version for my current 2016 to transfer to 2017. I can't find and "add" or "make bundle" button. It's been a year, I forgot how I did it before.

Uses the older interface but the concept is the same

I obviously screwed up in the naming of the bundles. I have 5 bundles but don't know which is which, or which is current. I have SU on a Desktop, and Laptop, and a Surface Pro 4. Is there a way to determine this? If not, is there a way to delete them all and recreate from the machine with the correct group of plugins? I will be updating the 3 machines and will want the same plugins on all.

You can only delete bundles that you created/cloned. All other bundles are named after the device they are associated to.
The Bundle name works like this [Device Name]:[SketchUp Version] so for me I have RICH-ASUS:13
Find the setup you want to clone and use that as the master installer for other devices and SketchUp versions.
There is always an element of management when dealing with multiple devices and multiple SketchUp versions.
For me I've 20 bundles listed going back to SketchUp 8 on a device I don't have anymore.
We don't support device bundle deletion because the next time you start SketchUp on that device the bundle will be created again.
We'd happily listen to feedback on how to improve it though. We added this bundle feature to see what would happen. We haven't spent too much time refining it.
