Still, I think it is a plugin worth having. I tried it with basic geometry and the results were exact, when I tried it with very complex and not clean geometry, I got different results from time to time, so the importance of using clean geometry is very clear. For clean geometry basically we need that each edge has two faces, no more no less, but that will ensure that the volume calculation is precise. The only requirements are that it needs the object to be a group or component, and for maximum accuracy the geometry has to be clean. It allows us to calculate the volume of an object. There is a useful plugin for Sketchup called VolumeCalculator21.rb. Discover a plugin that will allow you to calculate volumes of objects.
