Hello,
Again Thank you for this amazing work. Since I discover your generator, I can't stop using it.
My main purpose with it, is to create boardgame Insert.
The typetray (as the dividertray) are amazing for that.
I want to propose you one other lid format for the typetray, to save even more space in the cardboard box.
A flat lid with fingerjoint (but only on the outside wall) and a notch to easy remove the lid
like this one:

what do you think?

Ok, so after many tries, I managed to get almost what I want.
So now I have a new question...
Could we set different fingerjoint settings for the top and the bottom of the box and have a setting to tranforme the grip into a notch ? (or place it at the hieght we want)

Ooh, I like this idea for the gridfinity generator I just made !

Is this durable enough to remove on a regular basis? Sounds like a great idea. Right now the slide on lid doesn't generate properly so this would be a nice alternative to try. I'm just starting to experiment for the same purpose as you.

Added Lids to both TypeTray and the Gridfinity generators (and all other sort of boxes and trays). The style requested here is still not available as it'd need a new edge type (and we already have enough to make things complicated). But I am open to add more lid styles.

It wouldn't be a perfect solution, but could you possibly do the "on top" lid with a "reversed stackable" (ie., tabs facing down from the lid, indent on the top of the box) as an option? It's not a complete match to what's in the OP's pictures, but it would be close.
