Hi Marsel, 

a very low priority request. 

I notice that with the majority of use cases, people will want to create a Sandbox collider to contain the scene. 

Is there a chance of having a "lucid sandbox" added to the create panel under the "Lucid" tab?

That way users can quickly drop a sandbox in a scene and (if possible) easily scale it using the standard 3ds max scale tool. 

It will save them time creating a box, adding normals, backface cull, resize and then add lucid modifier.

Maybe a better solution would be a toolbar/main menu button which would just drop some standard-sized sandbox into the scene which the user can then adjust?

That would be great - even if it was in Lucid 2.0!

The Sandbox is something people would want to use most times, so having a one-click option is a great workflow boost. For now I have been merging in a 'sandbox' for every scene. 

I had only thought of putting it in the 'create' panel-> lucid as it is 'creating' a lucid helper object. In a menu would still be great.
