Hello,

It would be nice if the "create/insert" tool had an option to create edges when extruding the vertices. At the moment the tool only produces vertices unless you create a polygon. This way I can draw out an outline of whatever I'm modeling and and adjust the cage the way I want it. Once I'm happy with the outline I fill polygons. 

Thank you

The type of edge you mentioned is not supported. Have you tried the 'Retopo' tool? Geometry > Create > Retopo. It has quite a few tools for box and plane modeling. You need to read the descriptions in the help file if you don't know this tool. The tool has its own hotkeys and it is very fast once you understand how it works.
