    Perhaps some type of Patch and Subdivide Hole process for a closed loop of edges which would create a compatible mesh to blend in with the slope of bordering surfaces.

    This would be helpful for the surfacing of a top-most contour line or small areas the need to be "re-meshed".

      Repair holes, I dunno if it's even possible but imagine if there was a way to fix those tiny holes that sometimes appears after subdivision.

        There's been some discussion about this with thomthom under the 'SolidInspector' posts... it MUST be possible - although it is NOT easy! πŸ˜’

          will ever artisan support quad faces?
          or at least preserve it in case the proxy was properly created with thomthom quadface/vertex tools or fredo curviloft or tig extrusion tools or any other tools wich eventually generates quads? ❓

          it would be very useful for cleaner topology, faster selections, better texture mapping etc. πŸ‘

            My wish would be to be able to choose the shape of the brush. For the moment, or I missed something, the Brush is only a circle, I would love to see elispe, squarre or custom shapes used as brush pattern !!

              hmm.... an idea form ... what about being able to define a shape by selected face?

                  For the tool that flattens a selection to a plane, have the ability to input a Z-value or click on a surface once, and use the Z-value of that point to serve as the height of the plane.

                              Hi guys, I was wondering whether the next Artisan could get real-time feedback, like the good old subdivide-and-smooth plugin.
                              Actually, I never understood why this useful feature was removed in the first place.

                                Hi Carrozza,
                                Actually the feature was never removed πŸ˜•

                                Make sure you have 'Create Proxy From Group' turned on in the 'Settings' dialog. Then, just create a group and apply the SDS tool to it.

                                  Oops, I'd teach myself to RTFM... sorry.

                                  Edit: how do I "discard" the proxy and commit the subdivided mesh? Enter doesn't do it.
                                  This time I searched before asking but had no luck.
                                  Thanks!

                                    Ehm, I guess enough time passed after my question to make a bump.

                                    Is it possible to commit a subdivision discarding the proxy?

                                    Thanks!

                                      Do you want

                                      1. to make a subdivision with a group proxy and delete the proxy afterwards or
                                      2. to subdivide without the use of a group proxy?

                                      answer 1: you can edit the group and delete the proxy geometry (see picture)
                                      answer 2: you can subdivide in the context of the group (no proxy will be created)

                                          Thank you Cotty, it was the first one.
                                          Somehow I supposed that there was a "commit" command that would do this automatically, but manually deleting the proxy group is fine.
