Drop

votes

Great script that allows you to instantly align objects to the surface below. A common example would be scattering people / trees / entourage around a sloping site. With this script, just select your objects, click drop and they instantly fall to the surface below. Easy as can be!

Put On Layer

votes

Allows you to easily move entities and their nested elements (ie groups within components within groups) to any layer. You just right click on an entity you want to move. You'll see a "Put on Layer: " submenu. The first entry is "Current" then all other layers in the file are listed underneath for quickly moving entities / groups / components to different layers.

triangulate

9
votes

This script takes all currently selected faces, and triangulates them by adding a vertex at the centroid of each face and connecting all vertices of that face to it. It's a really simple method of triangulation, and there is an optional parameter called 'all' that if set to true, will triangulate every selected face, including faces which are already triangles.

Obj Importer

8
votes

This script imports .obj files directly into SketchUp. It works well on some files, fails on others. The Pro version can already do this.

New From Template

votes

This script lets you select a template and start a new model in one step.

 

 

Grow

7
votes

It takes a selection and copies it in XYZ a desired number of times, applying spacing, rotation and scaling. It makes some weird 'growths', but I can also see its use in making helical steps etc...

Usage : Move/Place Objects, Select them and pick Grow.
Pick Point, Enter desired data in dialogs and see results. Undo is 1 go.

Save As Template

7
votes

Opens the Save dialog to simplify saving the current model in the Templates directory.

Probably won't work on a Mac as I don't have access to one to test it.
