uploading a model to the warehouse

[Blutonium]

i uploaded a model of robot B9 (Lost in Space) to the warehouse. i
wanted to upload some other versions of this same model (i.e.
different pose etc.) but when i uploaded the second version, it simply
replaced the first one. how do i get other versions of the same basic
model into the warehouse, or am i only allowed one model?

Easy if you know what's goint on.
On upload the model gets a model ID which uniqely identifies the
model. In order to upload a second model you must ensure that the
second one doesn't have such model ID, otherwise it replaces the model
with this ID in the warehouse.

You have two choices:
1.Either create a new Sketchup project and copy/paste the robot into
the new project.

2. or open the ruby console and execute following line (found in
another forum):
Sketchup.active_model.attribute_dictionaries.delete('3DWarehouse')
This will remove the model ID, so afterwards when you upload it will
recognize the model as a new one.

Hope this helps.
