Is there a drag and drop for multiple copies of components?

But still not a multiple drop ?

Well okay, here is a one-liner you can paste into the Ruby console, after having selected an instance in the model.

Sketchup.active_model.place_component( Sketchup.active_model.selection[0].definition, true )

This will repeatedly attach a new instance to your mouse cursor, allowing you to drop new instances with a single click. (You are basically within a special MoveTool with “+” loop.)You will need to tap the ESC key to stop placing the instances.

This is a great example of a ‘Macro’-kind of working inside SketchUp, do you have more examples of oneliners?
