As the saying goes, "You reap what you sow".
All credit goes to you, dear Emmanuel, for creating and sharing this little gem, which over the years has been improved and enriched by the forum developers who have contributed their plugins. And then there's the whole community, whose questions and answers have enabled me (us) to realize projects that are increasingly in line with our desires.
And Veroniq, who regularly contributes beautiful things, especially thanks to her superb blog... Frankly, bravo to all, and long life to all SH3D's creators and contributors.

Un grand merci à vous, VeroniQ, ainsi qu'à Emmanuel et tous ceux qui partagent leurs connaissances.
