Wish list

[Matt Sederberg]

I've compiled some emails from our beta users into a "wish list" thread here on the forum. These responses play a major role in how we continue our development of this plugin. What are your top T-Spline plugin requests? Feel free to repeat requests already listed, as that will push them up in our prioirity queue.

T-Spline wishes:

Select ring
select loop
select connected points
Extrude along a normal
T-Splines primitives
Delete face

-uv mapping (an unwrap function for t-splines surfaces would be great, but maybe that's not your field)
-organic controls like rhino ones
-displacement (with automatic local refinement)
-sculpting tools like z-brush

maybe it's too much

maybe it's too much

There's a reason it's called a wish list.. .

About the organic controls, could you give some specific examples of what you're talking about, or functionality you'd like to see?

Thanks.

in rhino there's an interface that is used for selecting and moving control points by UV and normals coordinates (i don't know if they're planning to make it run also on mesh points... it's quite a "forgotten tool") and a toolbar called organic.
They are very useful when you model complex things like a body or a face.
Improve this interface would be very useful (maybe use it also for extrusion and offset, the command line is uncongenial) but you should make it work also on faces, not only on cp.

It's my first day of playing with t-splines for Rhino.

The intuitive option I'm missing while extruding is "extrude direction - normal to face".
For multiple, not connected faces the direction would vary.

I need to play with it more to have more comments but overall it's verry impressive tool !

thanks,
