Hi everyone - let me know if you have any questions about Quantifier in the comments below! :)

Nice work Justin! I'm glad you showed examples of creating objects with the built-in tools rather than with Profile Builder. Some people don't realize that you can use Quantifier Pro to quantify any type of SketchUp geometry, not just ones created with Profile Builder.

This looks very good, I might give it a go soon, thank you.

What I do like about this, is how it's flexible and can use materials or tabs - things that are created anyway.

10:55 "Then i'll type in times 10" My life has now changed after this sentence!!! 🤯

Hi Justin - is it possible to have a dynamic link between SketchUp and a spreadsheet, so that an update in the spreadsheet automatically updates SketchUp? What I would like to do is create my layers/tags in the spreadsheet with all their data, and then have SketchUp create the layers/tags from that? I'm trying to template my work, and this sort of reverse creating of layers/tags would work well for me. Looking forward to your thoughts :)

Thanks for making cool SketchUp videos they are very informative 😃

Can Quantifier costs transfer between models? Having a bit of trouble doing that

[sandydebruin]

Hi there can this be used with carpentry / shopfitting materials

[falgunpatel]

Whenever we upload cad file which have curv wall plan so how can we trace them or pull push them ??

Hi Justin, I’ve only recently started using quantify. Like yourself I use standard codes e.g 09_M Stone Crusher 19mm, 10_M River Sand, 11_M Plaster Sand, however quantify a doesn’t seem to keep a recording of the codes used when I open a new project. This means that I need to re-enter my codes and their descriptions on every new project. Is there a way in quantifier to record all your codes and their descriptions, so as to use them continuously without having to re-enter them on each project?

I bought it today! Will wait for discount for profile builder 3😊

[jdickson]

Hi- I bought the extension because of this video! When doing my material report- it does not include the waste %?

[decilsamuel]

I would like to ask the Quantifier Pro plug-in, the U. S. dollar can be adjusted into the Chinese yuan?

[davidandersen]

Another great video, Justin! As an estimator in the construction industry would you say this is one of the best estimating plugins you've come across for Sketchup? Thanks!

[orchardheadstudio]

Thanks for helpful vid. If I had 3 different thicknesses of stud, eg 4 x2, 6 x 2, 2, 2, on a layer/tag called "Studs" would I actually need to create 3 layers to get a cost per linear foot for each type of stud? I am worried about my layer/tag list becoming bloated if thats the case. Thank again

[gddraftsman]

big help, thanks, even I'm down and being scam,

[macroiu]

i hope this plugin could earn their expected profit but the functional design is below expectation that you should warn the developer the improved version:
1...various materials related to cost table item by mouse click, 2...timeline specifier to apply on different layers built for he models at different period of time, 3...generate section cuts from the built layers with several default animation options to show progress for user to select & present to the plugin is for free....

you go far to fast to actually see what you doing how the hell is any ment to follow along when you click so fast to see what your doing
