    Yes, anything is now possible! :lol: They will keep coming slowly, as I draw stuff and figure out what I need to automate. You know I was going to surprise you with version 1.1 of Repair & Phlatten, but I don't think it's needed. I saw you, in the full fuse video, move the part up and then phlatten. Well I made it do that automatically, but just now realize that there is no need to raise the part up. If you do a simple test, it doesn't matter if part is below or above or somewhere in between. Everything still gets projected up or down to the ground plane. :oops: Anyways, this is what it would have done and it was all ready to go. -Kwok :cry:

    Well I actually learned alot about selecting and other stuff, so it's all good. :)

    Ok, I've decided to release v1.1 anyways. If nothing else, it will save people that naturally lift their parts, an extra step. :) It's posted on the very beginning: viewtopic.php?p=15541#p15541

    Once again Kwok super cool! Thank you so much for releasing this.. We need to add this to the Must have Sketchup plugins section :)
    When I am lifting the parts up before flatting it's really more of a force of habit then anything else. I always think of anything below the ground plane to be a negative number and it seems that it should be above the ground plane before flattening it to zero :D
    Thank you

    It's funny because I always lifted the part up before phlatening it too. Cool plugin Kwok!

    Want to thank you for the scripts you have done. I really like this one and “Rotate” they are real time savers. IMO you have done some of the most useful scrip’s I have seen, easy to understand, use and they work great. Thanks again

    You're welcome, George. They usually come about, to rectify stuff that bugs me (time consuming, repetitive, etc). I am thinking about one that automatically make slots to match existing tabs. :)
