Overview
The Move To Tag extension allows users to efficiently organize their SketchUp model by tagging selected entities through a right-click context menu or keyboard shortcuts. It simplifies the tagging process by eliminating the need for multiple widows like TAGS and ENTITY INFO, enhances tag visibility management, and provides updated control over scenes as you create new tags.

NOTE:
I created this extension… because I couldn’t find what I wanted.
This functionality exists in Layout, but not SketchUp.
And it should… because its obvious.
There may be something better out there.
If so.. use that extension.
I have ONLY tested this on MacOS 15.3.1 with a M4 chip: SketchUp 2025 : I have no idea if it works on anything else. If you want to be a guinea pig, thats your call.
This is a FREE extension. I WILL NOT provide any tech support.
If you have some ideas for improvement. Leave a comment.
But, I probably wont do much too it.
I just don’t have the time.
Legal Blah Blah Stuff
I assume NO responsibility if it fails to solve your problems, or creates more; either with your computer, files, or personal life.
Downloading and installing software created by a perfect stranger; may show that you are too trusting, and make bad decisions… Its not my responsibility if something breaks.
Perhaps if you don’t know how to recover from an extension file failing to load properly, this is not the time to learn. And if the world was a nicer place… none of this would need to be said.
Use at your own risk!
