Yes, I would love it

The thing is there is some communication disfunction somewhere in between there and somewhere. Cant rlly have a reliable external connection these days.  
So im using my smartphone instead pc for net browse. Im rlly sorry for bad angles and weird gamma effect.

Gonna try to make it more stable.

Also I gotta tell u ur renders looks more real than reality itself. Great work.

If u want, I can publish some of these weird shapes so u can add on ur scenes as a plus.  
Would be amazing to see it.

Thx for feedback ✌

Much better already.

Modus seems to have its own limited color pallete:  
[(Color Palette | Trimble Modus Bootstrap Developer Guide)](https://modus-bootstrap.trimble.com/foundations/color-palette/)  
Witch makes all sense for default UI design but not for meta purposes, such as color manipulation tools, maybe charts or even games 😛

I’ve tried to use badges or chips (modus components) but failed to set custom colors… so saddly I had to use default html elements on that.

 ![Preview](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/sketchup/original/3X/8/1/819230736b285474d042ece3d0bd6532107a9dc0.png)

Maybe theres some css param workaround for that, gonna search a bit more.

It’s fun to see more people using Modus!

When using it, you can also look at the [Modus Guidelines pages](https://modus.trimble.com/components/buttons/) to make sure the elements are used as intended.

For instance, there should be a maximum of one primary (dark blue) button in each view. This button is intended to be used when there is one option that stands out as the mostly “correct” choice, like “Do you want to save?” “Yes” (this is likely what you want), “No” (this is okay too, but less likely what you want). If there are several options where none is a clear default choice, no primary button is needed.

That’s good to know, gonna try to keep ‘primary’ for modal ‘yes|no’.  
And use more links instead of buttons
