Just looking at VM2 for the first time and wondering if the ability to buy a product by length is now supported.
I can see how to add a Custom Field with a Cart Attribute
I can see how to apply this to a product and set a price modifier.
But (there is always a but) in VM 1.1.8 I had to customise VM to be able to accept a price modifier that was a multiplier to the base price.
e.g. base price = $10
1 meter - m1 = $10
2 meter = m2 =$20
3 meter = m3 = $30
Any idea if it can do this now in VM2

This can be done with a custom field plugin.
do you need a quantity box as well?
OR the quantity is the dropdown?
I am in need of this or how to do it also, A drop down menu for sizes , colors and different prices

So I think your answer was "no not in core, bu can be done using the custom plugin feature"
Is that correct?
I will therefore have to look into how to develop the plugin for this as and when I need it.
I am assuming in to do something smimilar to this and it actually change the SKU based on the options, we would need to use child products?

It doesn't seem like that will work for SKU's... :(
I can't seem to get the child product to display in any way on the parent product page (Ideally it would be a drop down option).
I dont use child products, and dont really know

You can select the customfield "product" if you don't handle Stocks.
The plug-in for child product is in heavy development

For the meter / price the plug-in trigger exist and can be used to modify the price dynamical on the rules you choose.
Eg multiply 2.5m*4.3m*1,40$(+100$ fixed) because you can write the rules in the plug-in itself
But this is not developed for now but possible.
