keep scale ?

Hi,

first, thanks for your tool, it works great and helpfull.

Just one thing : is it possible to keep the dimensions of old objects ? Exemple : my reference object is a tree (dimensions 30x30x30) : I need to replace boxes by the tree. But I need the trees keep the boxes dimensions. Lije this it makes a forest with a lot of various trees.

Would it possible to add this fonction ?

Please, try the _m version of the script. There is new "Match" option - Transformation. use it when you want to replace the mirrored groups or obejcts.
