This is due to lack of documentation. You can make any object CSG-able by
inheriting from CSGAble:

RoundedDisc = class(Object, CSGAble, Transformable, Texturable, ...)

Ok, but I'll see if I can find a way to load/save entire tables.

Oh, I see. Actually now there is no restriction upon the number of decimal
digits, if you want to limit the number of decimal digits you'll have to do
it inside :notify(id, value):

function RoundedCube:notify(id, value)
    if id == @roundnessID then
        -- limit to 2 decimal digits
        @roundness = floor(value * 100) / 100
    elseif ...
end

But I still have to update the dialog's controls to show the values of the
object's properties for this to work properly. Maybe I can add another
control to the dialog just like the one Moray uses for float values, where
you can specify the number of decimal digits you want and the control will
automatically clip the decimal digits for you.

Not at all! This is exactly the kind of feedback I need to improve FullMoon
2 before releasing it.

Just as a note, Chris Colefax answered my message about converting his
include files to Lua objects and he has been kind enough to let me convert
all his include files. I'm just finishing some work I have to do and then
I'll starting working on FullMoon again.
