Bug Reports / Re: Retopo bug
« Last post by xenoox on September 13, 2025, 11:51:20 am »It happens in retopo mode, using either tweak or drag extrude vertex, I think it's even happens when using drag operation on edges too. I would have to check if it also occurs outside of retopo mode. Sorry for the confusion.

Did you use the same mouse on the two machines?
Back to you first post, I am somehow confused.
When you said "extrude vertex" you meant moving it, right? Not extruding vertex like extruding polygon which creates new geometries.
And how can you tell it switched to polygon creation not something else?

Hi. I found a bug in retopo mode. Whenever I'm trying to to extrude vertex it sometimes switches to polygon creation instead and while it registers, produces edges with zero lenght. It also occures with tweak tool.

You can notice that at few points it tries to create poly line instead of grabbing vertices. I also found some other odd behaviour that was rather hard to replicate but I managed to capture single instance of it, at 0:16 mark you can see that vertices close to the cursor are getting slightly displaced on their own, don't know why it happens. What's worse its undoable, sometimes because of this it reprojects displaced vertices to distant mesh parts and I have to move back the vertices to their original position which is really annoying.

* The box used the same material as the image plane. You can create a new material and assign it to the box. View > Windows > Materials Window.

I am with this about 2 hours...with the reference image.
I am sure I have asked this before but cannot find it...in the forums.
When you try to align reference images at some point they disappear...when you cross the middle point I guess.
Why is that?
Is there a way to avoid this..or not having it disappear? this confuses the hell out of me.
In the left view I see the image, in the right view I dont....
The only other 3d app I use is Moi3d and here it is very quick you can move it never disappears...if you have an image visible in the top view
and in the 3d view you move it closer and farther away you will still see it in the top view and bottom view as well.
I am sure there is a logical explanation but I am not understanding this.
and why when I create a box it wraps is with my reference images?
Tnx!

If I had a circulized item I just can inset and it will create a perfect ouline...but how to do this with something like half a circle?
Tnx.
