      Hello, Component Finder is a great extension. In a future release could you please allow a way to see the file path somewhere? I have 2 folders on different servers containing the same components. One is a personal folder for my components and the other is a user folder. I've on occasion had the wrong folder open in the Component Finder window. Thanks.

      Hi Jkoll, Thanks!
      When we first started working on ComponentFinder we thought of showing the full path, but we found that it added a lot of unnecessary clutter to the screen, and in most cases it seemed like it's not needed.

      We may add the possibility of viewing the full path in future versions...

      If possible, you could try renaming the folders to avoid confusion. If you can't rename, for the time being, you can click on the little hard disk button every now and then which would open the source folder. It would serve as a double-check to make sure you're in the correct place.

      The problem is that the contents of my personal folder are Robocopied nightly into the user folder. I can rename the parent folder, but there are child folders that can't be renamed. Maybe you could incorporate a tool tip that flies out from the folder name when you hover over it? Thanks.

    • Copied Components do not change dynamically

      Hello all, I have a piece of conveyor used to divert boxes off of the main line. I have a group of wheels set up as components. The issue I have is if I change the width to anything larger than 18" and then change the divert direction the copied wheels do not change position. Although, it does appear that they do rotate correctly. If I then change the width back to 18" and then to a larger width they copy fine. How can I get them to change position correctly when resizing? Please see attached file. Thanks in advance.

    • Textures changing size.

      Hi all. I am just starting to get around the Vray trial. I have a section of conveyor that uses a texture in place of rollers. It looks fine in Sketchup. I changed the material settings in V-ray to simulate a metallic look. When I rendered it the texture on the curve shrank. I have attached pics. Can anyone tell me how to fix this? Thanks in advance.

      Hi! Great plugin! I am having issues with Sketchup hanging when I use the Thrupaint plugin. Especially, with large or complex models. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!
