Find

Open Finder search window to filter, sort, and place Library Items into the model, individually or in batch.

Find opens the Finder, where you can browse or search for Items in your Library, and then import them into your Sketchup model.

Menu:  Extensions > Compfire > Main > Find

Search and Filter

The Finder lets you search for text anywhere in the item's metadata.

You can also filter by clicking item branches. Branches look like chips. You can drill down by clicking subbranches, further filtering.

Batch Import

You can multi-select several items, and batch-import them into the model.

Want to import 100 items at once? Just select, then drag-and-drop into the viewport.

Sort items

To sort items, click the sorting icon, which looks like three bars of different lengths. Currently, it is in the lower left.

Toggle between Library and In-Model Views

The ble House icon near the search bar is a toggle button. Default view is the library.

To switch between Library View and In-Model View, click the button.

Change thumbnail size

The slider at the bottom of the Finder lets you change thumbnail size. You can go from pretty small to very large.
