Title: basic streamLine version of all the snapping tempory tools.
Post by: Passerby on May 13, 2013, 11:57:28 pm

exactly what the title says, i would like this feature, since im trying to setup temporary snapping for each component type on the same keys i use to switch component types.

Not quite get it. Can you explain with a sample work flow?

currently you got a set of tools for snapping temporary such as snapping vertex temporary etc, i would just like basic streamLine tool versions of all of these as well so i can make my own tools with them.

I still don't get it.

For example, if there is a basic streamline tool like "Snap To Vertex Temporary" and you bind it to a streamline tool's LMB. When you press down LMB you activate the tool but what you can do with it?

ah i was thinking of things wrong, i was mainly just trying to get a more flexible way to bind those tools, so i could have like say edge, and edge midpoint on one key with the edge component mode key, but guess your right that they cant qualify to be a streamline since it just temporly enables a mode.

What if I make a 'Enable Mode Base Snapping Temporary' tool and it enables component snapping base on the current mode? You can reduce the keys used but you have to switch modes often.
