This do more than what is needed in this case - it looks for selected curves etc.  
`if !Sketchup.active_model.selection.length == 1` at the beginning would save you from checking the selection size again.

Oh yea, this makes sense. I’ll update the example later today.

**EDIT** : Done. Although the test did not need negation.
