      Some humble features requests:

      1. Is it possible to enable snapping on gizmo manipulating;

      Not in the currently released version. But it's on my list for the new release.

      And inferences? Like we discussed before?

      That would be stellar!

        Vertex tools remain one of my most used plugin. It changed the way I looked at SU.
        I’d just like to bring up my request if I may the following features for vertex tools next release.

        1. The ability to soft select “connected vertices” only and not all vertices within
          the radius.

        1. To be able to offset or inset quad faces. Same as native offset but split to quads. I dot know if it should come thru QFT or other plugins. But this will be great addition
          offset/ inset

        3.To be able to merge vertices with snapping. Should be able to select which
        vertices move and which one stay. (Maybe locking a vertex will make it stay)

        1. To be able to lock selected vertices. In this way well have better control of
          Vertices that you want to edit . This could be an option if issue no1 is hard to do.

        Well, as it is now is very useful. Just want to present this for the author's consideration..

          ^^! to deselect softly pre-selected ones would be great indeed!

            I need to look through my notes on inferences with the gizmo. I recall having conversation about this.

              Great feature suggestions! I've logged them all for review.

              Do keep them coming! 😄

              How would this be different from the existing merge tool?

                The current merge tool collapses the selection into a single point which is the average position of the selection.

                When you want one vertex to be joined to one fixed vertex and snaps it into place. If we can do that, It will be great! (Snapping can be toggled on and off and radius be pre- set)

                  You're talking about the gizmo inferences?

                  I hope so...

                    Doh! I'd forgotten that I have this tool in the dev-build of VT2... (Thought it was part of 1.2...)

                        So... you're activelly working on VT2 too and it might feature inferences! That's VERY cool!

                          Those are cool powerful set of additions.. hope will be available soon.. 😮

                          Quick question, can we maintain the curve after moving vertices?. i noticed that curves are exploded (unwelded) after you move one or two of its vertices... have to reweld them back..

                            I love Vertex tools, but I miss one function very much: The ability to "move normal". I'd like to be able to select a group of vertices (for example a loop) and move every single vertex in its own normal direction (and the same distance). One possible use could be to create a 'ridge'or 'groove' in an organic shaped mesh.
