Hi!
I'd have a suggestion for a small feature development.
When doing soft selection we have two options of falloff - linear and cosine. What if we had more options, e.g. "pinchy" fallof shape, as illustrated below, on the left?I can see such idea was already posted years ago but I dared to bring it anyways, cuz it would be a fantastic improvement of already very good tool!

Hi!
Got a question.
If I select some vertices using soft selection, it will also affect geometry that's not connected to selected vertices (see screenshot). Can I change this behavior so that soft selection will only affect connected vertices?You'd say "do grouping your geometry" but that's not the solution in my case.
Currently soft selection is computed by spatial distance only. I have it on my list to add a "by connected distance" option.

Yes, that is also on the list. something like a pinch and bubble parameter like 3dsmax offer.

I hope target weld is in that list as well

Oops.. I meant welding based distance threshhold

Like this?

Wow morning full of surprises.
Many thanks!
The only thing left to be clarified is when v2019 will be out

Good question. I'll make a post when I know myself.

Btw, Merge Close Vertices is already included in v1: https://evilsoftwareempire.com/vertex-tools/manual/tools#merge_close_vertices

Hi!
I'd have another suggestion of upgrade. "Make Planar" tool would be more useful if we could specify the plane for selected vertices to be flattened to. For example, set the plane with two vectors, like TIG's Mirror does. -

Wow, scaling to 0
It is a game-changer I wished SketchUp had for a long time. And only now I realised FredoScale can do it as well.
Curious how many more surprises are hidden in these little buttons -
One of the most frustrating things about teaching is how much students don't learn. Which can be read as hear, see, retain, remember, bother to take in, have any interest in, or simply haven't been exposed to. Amongst others.
Pretty much everything has already been asked, answered and argued over in these forums, much like the rest of the internet you never get to the end of it and there's not much that hasn't already gone before. -

Curious how many more surprises are hidden in these little buttonsI don't recall if v1 snap to scale 0 - but v2 will for sure. Making it easier.
(I had similar revelation about scaling negative to flip/mirror.)

Often they are buried deep in lengthy threads.

So true, I didn't mean anything by it. Just noting that we all tend to read what's in front then scroll on rather than following the story.

Hi Thomas,
Thank you so much for the great plugin.
Is there a chance to add some features to VT:1st: to extrude with scale similar to the move tool by holding the Ctrl key?
2nd: Furthermore moving only in one direction at a time is time consuming, I've seen you've got another type of gizmo which has three planes which you can move in two direction by clicking on each of them?
3rd: Also, the soft selection selects vertices in a sphere shape, could you add a feature to firstly choose which vertices to select and then continue to soft select?
