I am using sketchup 2021. After running the plugin, all other plugins give an error.

Error in C:/Users/samib/AppData/Roaming/SketchUp/SketchUp 2021/SketchUp/Plugins/!ae_LaunchUp/interception.rb:126 for add_item
break from proc-closure

When I go full screen, the status text bar at the bottom disappears.

When will your update arrive?

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main\FeatureControl\FEATURE_BROWSER_EMULATION]
"sketchup.exe"=dword:00002af8

I added regedit and it was improved thanks a lot

yes I switched to 2020, thanks for your help

Thank you TIG

The native methods are available to all - with no need for coding skills...

To simply edit ../Plugins/Explode2groups.rb to finally make components rather than groups...
Edit that RB file using a plain-text editor [e.g. Notepad++ on PC, or TextWrangler on MAC]
Find line #43
all.each{|a| aents.add_group(a) }
Change it to read
all.each{|a| **gp=**aents.add_group(a)**;ci=gp.to_component;ci.definition.name="Compo#1"** }
The default component's name - Compo#1 - increments for each new definition...

I tried, it works. But you misunderstood me. I want the components to use the same process. to separate nested components. or is there such a plugin? easy and simple plugin! ..

@unknownuser said:

It's easy to do...
At the end of the part that make a group out of some entities you add something like -
compoi = group.to_component
You can then choose to use methods like compod=compoi.definition; compod.name="Compo#1" to rename the definition as desired.

But if this relates to the parallel question once you have all exploded entities, still selected, there is a right-click > context-menu native-item "Make Component...", which makes the Selection into a Component rather than into a Group like with "Make Group" - the resultant dialog lets you name the component etc...

If you already have a Group then the context-menu item "Make Component..." can also make that selected Group into a Component etc...

This is very hard for amateurs like me

@tig said:

But as I said before...
If you select all of the required groups [and or component-instances] and use Explode from the built-in right-click context-menu item, the result remains selected, so then you can immediately use the built-in right-click context-menu again to Make Group...

Even if there were a tool to do what you wish you'd need to preselect the groups to process and then run the tool to group them and explode them, so the amount of work you'd have to do is about the same either way.
So making a script to do this is duplicating what's already available to you ??

"expode2component"

Can you make such a plugin?

**I need the woodworking plugin like in the video above!

Profiler, but for the production of furniture such as menus and working logic; would be great if it looks like in the video**

It would be nice if there was a plug-in to create single groups when all nested groups explode.

Thank you for your interest in TIG.
I don't know if I got it right, but I haven't.
I am using Sketchup 2018 version

Hi TIG
Thanks this plugin! ..
Selecting each group one by one detonates. Can the whole group or components make a single selection?

I want all drawings in the file to be a single group or component when I run the plug-in

solid volume command. It would be nice to have a report window that shows the dimensions of the part I selected on the screen.

I think it should be a different plugin, because the request does apply to objects which are non-solid.

By the way, there may exist already some plugins giving the dimension of the bounding box, which I assume is what you want.

Fredo

PS: indeed, there is no problem to adding this feature to Solid Volume, but that would be restrictive.

This is exactly what I'm looking for "ElementStats"
Sorry, now I noticed.
Thanks FREDO! ..

Can you add a command that shows the external dimensions of the solid part?

I was very happy if I could help. I'm waiting for you to update the plugin thanks TIG

Moving points to layer did not work. The plugin's code needs to be edited as follows! ..
old code
def self.layerAllGpoints()
model = Sketchup.active_model
entities = model.active_entities
model.start_operation("layer active Gpoints")
model.layers.add("CPOINTS")
entities.to_a.each{|entity|e.layer="CPOINTS" if e.valid? and e.class==Sketchup::ConstructionPoint}
model.commit_operation
end

new code

def self.layerAllGpoints()
model = Sketchup.active_model
entities = model.active_entities
model.start_operation("layer active Gpoints")
model.layers.add("CPOINTS")
entities.to_a.each{|e|e.layer="CPOINTS" if e.valid? and e.class==Sketchup::ConstructionPoint}
model.commit_operation
end
