Hello. This is my test code:

plugin Helper TestHelper
name:"TestHelper"
classID:#(0x5a1b2412, 0x1e8d2f12)
category:"Standard"
extends:dummy
(
local meshObj, theMesh, MyObject
parameters pblock rollout:params
(
size type:#float animatable:true ui:size default:1.0
)

rollout params "TestHelper"
(
spinner size "Size:" range:[0, 1e9, 1]
)

on getDisplayMesh do
(
if theMesh == undefined then
(
local vertsArray = #( [0,0,0], [size,0 ,0], [size,size ,0], [0,size,0])
local facesArray = #([1,2,3], [3,4,1])
local edgeVis = #( #(true,true,false), #(true,true,false))

meshObj = mesh vertices:(for v in vertsArray collect v*size) faces:facesArray
for face = 1 to edgeVis.count do
for i = 1 to 3 do
setEdgeVis meshObj face i edgeVis[face][i]

theMesh = copy meshObj.mesh
delete meshObj

if MyObject==undefined do MyObject=selection[1]

when transform MyObject change id:#Volume do print MyObject.name

)
else

theMesh
