What if I want to make a dynamic component that consists of 10 (or more) instances of the same subcomponent that behave independently? Do I still need to "Make Unique" 10 more times, or is there another way around?

In an Object Oriented Programming Language, we know that we can have as many instances of a class as we like, which can behave differently. Is it NOT true for a subcomponent in SketchUp?

Is it true that all instances of the same subcomponent maintain exactly the same size and shape?

Is it possible to bend the geometry of a component dynamically by Ruby?

Is it possible to make a (dynamic?) component that can bend to the left or right at any angle specified if I want it to?

Thanks.
