      First of all - this is an EXCELLENT plugin! It's fun, it's original - kudos! ๐Ÿ˜„

      However, I have found that either it interferes with Lightup (see error screen cap) or Lightup interferes with it and with Matchbox installed, it seems to prevent Fredo6's Tools on Surface x 1.3 from working at all. You can choose a tool, the icon changes to reflect your tool choice but it will not do anything from there. I uninstalled Matchbox and the Tools on Surface works just fine. Any thoughts? โ“

        By the way - I uninstalled Lightup (I didn't like it anyway) and that fixed that problem, although that's probably something to note, but I use Tools on Surface heavily so I can't just uninstall it. I don't know if it's unique to me so if anyone else is having the same problem, please chime in.

        Thanks!

          Great! A New version! I'll test it out right away.

          As for what to do next, How about adding components like Wing Mirrors and Fenders randomly.

            Thank you, Craigbic.

            I don't have a specific problem as yours (I don't have those plug-ins), but yes, my code does interfere with other plug-ins. I haven't figured out why cos I'm an amateur at coding. I think I packed all my codes under my own classes and assumed that doing this will avoid interference. Anyone have idea about this?

              Wait a sec! I can use Tools on Surface on other objects but not on my "car"s. The issue is that I scaled those cars before they are displayed. So their actual geometries are not what visually displayed. Hope that solves one piece of the puzzle.

                    Max, I finally got around to mucking around with Matchbox, and I came up with a lovely little futuristic car, So I decided to make it one of my projects!(Along with building a whole city and making a detailed model of a house)

                    Anyway, I've added some details to it, and popped it into Hypershot for a quick render.

                    Enjoy!

                    Thanks so much for such a great plugin!

                        This plug (for me) block some of bezierspline plug-in components: ClassicBezier and CubicBezier.

                                  this looks like a great, quite interesting plugin. But what I want to know is if its compatibility problems were solved already...

                                    What's the compatibility issue again? I'm kinda out-of-date for a while.

                                      you only need to read the first page.

                                      it seems several important plugins stop working when you install matchbox.

                                            I looked at the source code and I could not see any thing that would interfere...
