Additional (not sure if you saw the above post about rectangular hair...)

Big request..... Is there any way to turn /off/ the automatic unwelding/inverting of the collapsed polys upon import?

Its nice to have them flagged but bringing back in a problem obj just to relax it to fix a crease it is turning into a major production of inverting, rewelding selecting, checking for extra mesh connections, magneting and then welding just to get back to where you were when you saved it the last time so that you can start fixing the problem ;P

Perhaps it already has been requested but a wireframe mode in Edit and 3D view and a snap tool (point or edges) would be fine for cutting complex meshes.

Fine tool Laughing

Yes, some way to pick hard to pick edges is a common request and will be sorted
out someday. In the meantime, the Home key is good for focusing the view on a
particular poly, then you can zoom in on that, and sometimes spinning the view
around so you can see the mesh from the inside helps.

Would be nice if you could freeze only part of a mesh and let the other part (parts) continue to flatten... maybe a group PIN button that would attach multiple pins on vertex points with like a paint brush tool.

Kewl, Thanks. You are so quick to respond. I think I am falling in love... Very Happy

Just kidding.

Reply speed depends on whether I'm in a "do support at beginning of day" or "do support at end of day" sort of mood. You just got lucky this time :-)

Hello,
Where do we post our bug reports ? Do we post them here or in another area ?

Thanks again for access to your wonderful program!

Yes, you can post them in this topic, or open up a new one; either way is fine.

Hi Phil,
Is there a way to cause the pins to snap to grid points? I have read through the discussions, and have not found that option talked about? I know that the entire mesh will snap to center grid (or left or right or top or bottom) but can individual pins?

Also, what version number are you up to? I noticed the first post in here talks about v1.9, yet all I have seen to be able to download for beta testing so far is 1.12.1

Yes... that is what I was wanting to do... is to straighten an edge.

Howdy Phil,

Is there currently a way to turn visibility of individual shells on/off in the 3D view?
I can see this as just a handy addition for tough to visualize areas that need
cutting or welding.

I've run across this small "wish" with the internals of mouth/sock/teeth/gums
(they are a seperate model than the character) I was working on...got it done, but
it was kinda tight manipulating around in there. Wink

Kind regards,
