I do not know, I need that depending on the choice of parameters (height and length) calculates the final price, when the parameters vary to vary the price. thanks

Hi - It's my understanding that if all you need to do is adjust pricing by a combination of basic dimensions like width, length or height, that extension will do the trick.

Now if you need more flexibility with your pricing or measurement configuration, you could use our Breezing Forms Custom Fields integration for VirtueMart. Breezing Forms lets you develop very complex calculations based on whatever input the user provides. Then our extension embeds your finished form into a VM2 product page and the form options become part of the product information and can also adjust the price.

@Grisu74 - 

There is an older version of Breezing Forms that is free (1.7). We have not done full QA testing with the older version and do not officially support it for our integration extension, but a few clients have said they used it successfully.

Here's the link to the free one on the JED - http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/contacts-and-feedback/forms/8001

Here is the latest commercial one (which is what we officially support) - http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/contacts-and-feedback/forms/4709

Either way, you will also need our Breezing Forms Custom Fields extension, which is awaiting publication in the JED. Here's a direct link for now: https://polishedgeek.com/paid-extensions/breezing-forms-custom-fields-virtuemart-2.html  It is commercial ($59 USD)

As to which is more convenient... if the Custom Size plugin does exactly what you need, and you don't foresee needing to add other types of interdependent or conditional fields, then absolutely use that extension. If it is a match for your situation then it will be less work for you, and less expensive.

If however, that extension is not a good fit for your requirements, then you should consider the Breezing Forms Custom Fields approach. You can design a custom form without programming knowledge, and there is no hack involved. It's a lot more flexible but you will need to develop a custom form to capture your fields, and then follow our documentation to plug the form into the VM2 product pages. http://docs.polishedgeek.com/wiki/display/BFCUSTOM/Introduction+to+Breezing+Forms+Custom+Fields+for+VirtueMart

Hope this helps!  :)
