Usage
This plugin is accessed from the Draw menu (Draw > Spherical Spiral). This will open a dialog box to enter the parameter values.
The more edges per revolution, the smoother the curve.
When you click OK, the spherical spiral is created as a component, and the component placement tool is activated to position it in the model.
The dialog box remembers the values between SketchUp sessions.
