      Hello all,

      Does anybody know how to get a handle on the new volume attribute, Sketchup Pro 2018, in order to use it in calculations?
      I want to multiply it by density in order to get load. For example, volume * density = load. Useful for calculating running loads and therfore bending moments, stress, reactions etc

      I want it to be realtime without having to use reports. So either directly in entity info window or in dynamic components attributes.

      Thanks,

      Tom

      Does anybody know if it can't be done? I know there is a volume DC function available somehow but it goes a little beyond my coding skills at the moment. ??
