Week of June 7th - 13th
The branch soc-2021-knife-tools has been created and I have spent the past week implementing the following features:
- Constrained Angle Mode Improvements
- New setting to control snapping angle increment
- Number key input also works for quickly setting the increment
- Orientation Locking
- Pressing X,Y or Z will restrict the current knife tool cut to the corresponding dimension in global orientation (toggle cut-through moved from ‘Z’ to ‘T’)
- Pressing the same key again will restrict to local orientation
- Scene orientation setting takes priority over this if any orientation except global is selected. This provides support for custom orientations or others such as gimbal and normal.
Lastly I spent a short while looking into code for next week’s plans. Specifically relating to visible distance and angle measurements for the knife tool.
