      Hello. Maybe you can help me. I am looking for a plugin or code that can convert complex components into simple first level. Thanks.

        Do you mean you want to get rid of the child components inside the larger parent component?

          I need a parent component explode on child components.

            Right click on the components you need to explode and select Explode. No need for an extension.

              Thanks, I know that. I use blb-bois plugins for woodworking https://www.blb-bois.com/dao/plugins-sketchup and they only work with simple components. My DCs are very complex and sometimes I have to explode 100 ... 300 components. I know about explodes plugins on sketchUcation but they work from the bottom up. I need the opposite.

                I use the CutList extension and it reports the bottom level components only so there's no need to explode parent components at all.

                I do not need to report. I use the Assemblage plugin. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9GbwPRm7qxg
