Thank you so much for this tutorial! It's such a simple concept but using FFD on lines first INSTEAD of 3D geometry is so clever. Not sure how I didn't realize it before but this is really gonna ease the load off my computer when using FFD from now on.

After installing the newest version of FFD, I notice I now have 2 FFD commands in my right-click menu (I can see you do too in the video). The one you use (FFD...) I assume is the standalone plugin which leads me to assume that the one with the dash (-FFD...) is the JHS Powerbar version? Do you know if updates to the plugin will get included in JHS Powerbar as before? Or, will the JHS included one become obsolete after updates and we'll need to use the standalone? Tnx!

Hello Justin,
I have a question about the layout. I use 2021 Sketchup and layout, when I sent SketchUp model/file to layout and in "SketchUp model" section I choose a scene I always need to turn on or turn off layers/tags visibility in the "tags" section. Why this happening, it's not working like in SketchUp when I choosing a scene it's changing different layers/tags visibility! Can you help me with it?
