Other Topics

No face sets by default?

:anchor: T101623 Deleting the default cube breaks face set initialization with joining objects

This needed a decision to be made if this is a bug or if we want to reconsider the intended behavior.
Since not using face sets uses less memory and “initialize face sets” can still be used once user wants to opt-in, everyone seems in favor to embrace the new behavior.

We just need to fix the issue when objects with face sets are joined into an object without. It will currently lose all face sets.
Also if we embrace current behavior then we should remove code to set face sets on join.
