      By the way (back on the Vertex Tools thread), how's Version 1.1 coming along?

      I've had a month of two of less productivity - in general in regard to plugins. Been a wee bit pre-occupied with buying appartment etc and other boring real life things.

      But I have been working on the new Gizmo system - manipulators which I think will make it quicker and easier to handle the selection.
      I hope to preview it in a video soon. ( Not a Vertex Tools video - but a new toy... πŸ˜‰ )

      Once I got that system polished I plan to add it to VT 1.1 along with some other improvements.

                  You've been so prolifically busy lately: have you had a chance to work on this?

                    I got a batch with updates for my other plugins lined up that will be released soon. Then focus will turn towards Vertex Tools. (the work on the other plugins benefits Vertex Tools, but indirectly.)

                              Yes - that is in fact on my todo list for a future release. πŸ˜„

                              I'm modelling it after how 3D Studio do soft selection. From what I can tell it is a bezier curve controlled by two paramters, Pinch and Bubble.

                              Another awesome tool thomthom. I'll post some examples when I've finished my current WIP.

                              wrt soft selection, would it be possible to incorporate a negative radius? that would soften the vertices only by the vertices selected rather than a soften by vertices surrounding the current selection? I ask this because there are certain vertices on the edges of my mesh that I don't want to move, but its hard to get a good soft sine wave from a selection that doesn't affect some of the vertices on this edge.

                              thanks again.

                                Very good idea.

                                  ThomThom, thanks for this great plugin. Just installed and saving me loads of usually fiddly workaround editing.

                                      I can see myself just playing with this tool for hours. I noticed it said IE7 and up.. what? No firefox?

                                        No - it uses the OS default HTML render engine, which means IE on windows and WebKit on OSX. Many applications makes use of the IE render engine (note - not the browser itself, just it's core) so it's always worth keeping IE up to date, even if you don't use it as your browser.
