      In reference to the even / odd issue, this is what might happen with a 13 sided cylinder.

          Yes, it will do non-quadrangular crossed lines, but it won't do faces that don't have 4 sides. For your example, make your starting face much larger than in needs to be, and then use a pattern to get the shape you want. Extrude the pattern, group, move into position, intersect_selected, remove the bits you don't want, and bingo - Happy Valentines day!

          I think I'll put a user interface on it to allow you to pick the color, or colors, and to swap the colors if you don't get the starting square color where you wanted it.

                  Frenchy, mine doesn't do what Todd's does. Mine just randomly applies pre-selected color. Todd's makes a checkerboard like you asked for. I was making one for Equadorian who asked to have per-selected colors applied randomly to selected faces. So while they are similar, they are different. And I'm sure Todd's is going to be much more user friendly, and his menu probably won't end up in a never ending loop like mine likes to ๐Ÿ˜„
