Title: Slide question.
Post by: samardac on February 11, 2014, 01:52:02 pm

Is it any simple way to slide edges, just select them and slide?
This method from stream tool when using RMB to select edges to slide is very hard to use especially when edges are on another side of model,

There is a basic streamline tool "Slide Selection". That tool will slide what you have already preselected.

You could create a new streamline tool, or edit the existing slide streamline tool to add that tool.

There is any way to slide not only one point? But as much as selected?

There are hundreds of tools/function, so there are many that do not have an hotkey.

The "basic streamline tool" > "Slide Selection" will do that.

Do you need help setting up that tool?

Select all the points(vertex) first, then press the hotkey for the "Slide Selection" tool, press (hold) the mouse button you have set for the tool, and move the mouse(cursor) in the direction you want to slide.
