Great extension. I wonder if it is possible to make a custom made toolbar fly out? Would save getting in the way when you have it in the work area.

This is a great plugin. It could be even better (for me anyway) with a couple of tweaks. It would be great to be able to set some defaults. For example, I often work in 2D. If you use a single line as a mirror "plane", the default is that faces get reversed. I never want that and would like it to operate the way it does if you select a vertical third plane (bit without having to do so in 2D drawing). Secondly, I almost never want to erase the original object and would like to set that as the default instead of having to confirm it each time.

Maybe you can still buy it but there must be some reason it is no longer as readily available as it used to be. Would be useful to know in case it affects decision to buy.

I would like to use this plugin but it tells me I have the wrong SU version (SU 2015). Is there anything I can do to make it like my version?

There are a number of useful videos on YouTube that will give you the basics. However, once past that, things get more tricky. I have been trying to learn how to make a DC myself this past week. I can achieve something simple (like a window with a single sash), but when you want to start creating multiples of elements, it all gets difficult.

What I would like, but haven't yet found, is good general advice about how to set things up. For example, can you have a complex sub-component that behaves predictably or do you have to break it down into its constituent parts first? I have not been able to control behaviour of complex sub-components but if you have to break them down, navigating the dialog box for attributes becomes a nightmare.

There are some fantastic models available for downloading so someone out there must have worked out how to do it!
