GSOC 2023: UV Editor Improvements

Report Week 3

This week I completed the revised version Select Random operator, and I plan to submit a pull request after any final adjustments, pending feedback from my mentor. I also looked over the existing code for the edge slide tool and revisited the merge by distance pop up deliverable.

Overall, Select Random took longer than I expected but it was worthwhile as a learning exercise and allowed me to feel more comfortable with Blender development although I still have a lot to learn. I also wasted a lot of time due to a misunderstanding I had, and plan to double check regarding important details in the future.

In the following week, I will be travelling so I will not be able to do much. However, if I have time I would like to try to start the merge by distance pop up and maybe further understand edge slide.
