setz 637 Posted May 6, 2020 Wouldn't it be great to have an option added to the Extend Tool to allow faces to be interactively pulled with the distance field live for numerical input and have it utilize the CMD key toggle for Static/To Face/Dynamic options? Or maybe just add a new tool that would have this utility. 2 ZTEK and Justin Montoya reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ZTEK 64 Posted May 6, 2020 +1, great!... I prefer to toggle with the ALT key ; ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AsOne 444 Posted May 14, 2020 How is this different than the Reshape tool? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
setz 637 Posted May 14, 2020 Envision Extending the bottom of a cone dynamically vs Reshaping it. Reshaping makes it no longer a cone. 1 Justin Montoya reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
setz 637 Posted May 14, 2020 ADS is getting close and teasing us...Segments first, than possibly faces next? Woohooo! From the 9.4.0 notes: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Simbio3D 8 Posted March 3, 2021 For me, the way extend tool was working prior version 6 was quite good, apart from some crash due to bad mesh, mostly because during boolean operation there was left duplicate points and collinear segments. Today after upgrade to version 9.1 I find it much more difficult to use it. You can't really perform in an optimal way the extend tool in wireframe mode, which is fundamental, because where in shade view you can easily select a face and extend to another but you can't see the full geometry like in wireframe. there is not much use by working in shaded as mention you can't work in full geometry. I would like to understand why user Setz is talking about 9.4 is it a beta version? do we have the right to test it? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
setz 637 Posted March 3, 2021 My lazy typing fingers, that was likely V9.0.4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
