I bought Prim.Docker a couple of years ago, and immediately decided it was the best thing since sliced bread. Thereafter, you would never find me building anything without my Prim.Docker HUD.

But then, with the advent of H4, suddenly Prim.Docker started leaving gaps between prims. I could no longer trust it, and after a few queries to the Prim.Docker group, in which I received answers like "Just texture it so the gaps don't show," I stopped using it altogether.

Of course, Prim.Docker has stayed on the market, with various excuses that claim it is currently impossible for it to work, and that it is all the fault of Linden Labs. My take on this is if H4 broke your tool, take it off the market, and either figure out how to fix it, or give up.

Well, there is now a tool, created by a very smart ex-Prim.Docker user, that works the same, and will slap a .010 prim right up against a 256m prim, with no gaps or overlaps. It doesn't have all the useless bells and whistles recently added to Prim.Docker to make up for the fact that Prim.Docker doesn't actually work. It just snaps prims together, easily, and reliably.

It is called Prim Master, and you can buy it on XSL. If you have any trouble finding it, please feel free to IM me. I don't make any money off the sales of Prim Master, but it really annoys me that people can sucker other people into buying broken tools by advertising heavily, as the Prim.Docker creator is doing. Therefore, I would like to steer people to a tool that actually works.

Is there a free open source alternative?

a.Pos (+/-) (a.size / 2 + b.size / 2) = b.pos

with percentages or omission for slice and cuts
