Hi Samuel,

The permanent disappearance of the model seemed to correct itself after I cleaned up my model and developed my schema further, and opened and closed SketchUp a few times along the way. I started it within a model where I had been playing around with the native DC editor so it could have been a conflict of sorts there.

I have attached the files which I think were form that version in any case but please don't feel like you need to investigate this one further.

I really enjoyed using the interface this time. I think I saw a request for incorporating the follow me tool. I think that would be a really powerful enhancement but I realise that might mean adding some line drawing function.

Thanks once again Samuel. I can't wait to find another excuse to take this for another test run.

Hi Samuel. Thank you for looking at my post.

Does this happen when you are typing a formula?
Yes.

The preview in Math nodes such as Divide can be empty. This is a known issue. It's only a display bug.
Thanks so much for letting me know that Samuel. I wasn't sure what to do next with that one.

Can you please send me your .skp or .schema file?
Schema attached.

Thank you Samuel for this awesome extension. I spotted this a few years ago and tried a few things out of interest but didn't get far. I returned last week after getting frustrated with the native dynamic component editor. Thanks for your great modifications since it is a very useful tool now. Well done.

Thanks also to Traupmann for the Arch schema. I changed the numbers a bit but got a Bug Splat after a few minutes.

I'm building a schema with some similar components and found two strange things

1. The components often disappear in SketchUp upon modifying the schema. Adding and deleting nodes sometimes makes them reappear.

2. Some nodes do not appear to be calculating but seem to have correct formula in them (see attachment)
