 Tag plates are accessories that are compatible with standard TouchBound Locking points. They can be used in place of a lock as decoration.
-Accessories do **not**, prevent chaining & unchaining like locks do.

+====== Adding/removing ======
 Accessories like the tag plates behave very much like locks, however they don't really provide any kind of "locking" behavior.
 They don't carry any identification/security code, so using any tag plate on an installed plate will remove it.

 Each tag plate set comes with a selection of marking to choose from.

+====== Customization ======
+Official skins from different sets are compatible with each others and you can move them between tag plates freely.
+The tag plates come with a full-permission copy of the "Blank" plate. You are free to save it on your disk and edit it with your favorite 2D software package.
+Creating and installing a custom skin is as easy as naming the texture accordingly and dropping it inside the tag plate inventory. Custom tag plates **must** be full-permission or the script will be unable to read and transmit the texture's UUID.
+//Note: If a blank plate is being transmitted, the texture couldn't be read.//
+======= Public use =======
+{{ :touchbound_system:public-mode.png]}}
+By default, when tag plates are used as a HUD object, or worn on the avatar as an accessory, only the wearer can use them. But there is a special configuration notecard inside the tag plate object that can be renamed to change this behavior:
+PUBLIC=NO : Standard behavior, when worn on the avatar, only the owner can use it.
+PUBLIC=YES: Anyone in close range can use it, and when rezzed, anyone can change the active skin.
+In all cases if the tag plates are rezzed on the ground (not worn) anyone in close range can use it regardless of the public setting.
+======Click modes======
+  * Clicking the tag plate once will switch to "activated mode", indicating that it is waiting for the target object to be clicked.
+  * Clicking it again will leave "activated mode" and open the skin selection menu.
+  * Click and hold the tag plate for more than 3 seconds to "lock" the activated mode for 30 minutes.
+Activated mode is represented by a glow, and an "activated" hover text when the object is used as a hud element (HUD elements cannot glow)
+======Locked activation======
+When a tag plate is locked in activated mode, you can click multiple objects in sequence without having to click the tag plate again between each use.
+This mode can be disabled by clicking the tag plate a second time. It will also deactivate itself if attached/rezzed or after 30 minutes.
