Ok thanks

I noticed that JPP treats group copies as components. Is there a way to overcome this without having to enter each copy. I am running the latest version of JPP. and SU V21

Thanks TIG.
Just what I wanted.

I am looking for a plugin that will drape construction points at regular customisable intervals over all of my model bits and pieces. Where there are no model bits and pieces the construction points will be placed at Z:0 level.

The intended use will be to create a terrain etc. Similar to cloth I suppose but without the folds.

I have done a search in the usual places.

Does anyone know if such a plugin exists?

Thanks for your suggestions. I'm not getting bug splats.

I think that I have found one of the reasons why I get undesirable results. Don't select the object before using Joint PushPull.

Anytime you push the limits of an extension and/or sketchup you will hit a ceiling.

When you hit the ceiling you navigate around it by breaking it up into more manageable chunks.

In most scenarios you will achieve a result just not as efficiently.

Thanks Rich.

One way that seems to work for me today was to program one of my mouse buttons to 'Double Click' function. Not elegant ... but its something.

Personally I don't think it is acceptable to effectively disparageby someones extensions with offhand dismissive comments.
I know they work, I know people fail to make them work because they don't use them as they were designed to work.
We can help you make them work, but ... I guess it's not worth the effort.

I was NOT disparaging anyones work. I have used many of Fredo's fine plugins. As I mentioned clearly before,the problem is difficult to describe. Obviously I don't understand the intricacies of this plugin.

My post was not about Fredo's plugin. I mentioned it to say that I had already tried it.

Just a suggestion _ calm down and dont get your knickers in a knot. Only comment if you are helpful (as Dave was).

Thanks Dave

I cannot be precise because the problems with the behaviour vary so much. The plugin may work for a while then without any reason the results are unexpected, even when using the same tool.

I have been using the plugin on and off for many years and now trying to find alternative options.

Anyway, now back to my original question.

I have tried Fredo's extensions. However, after a while they play up.

Which of Fredo's extensions are you referring to?

Joint PushPull.
