    Hi All,

    Again, I am asking for discussion of proposed features before submitting an RFE.

    follow-me move

    In line with a number of CAD packages I have seen, I am suggesting a mode that moves objects without requiring a mouse button be depressed for the duration of the move. It would work something like this:

    1. select follow-me mode
    2. select one or more objects - release all mouse buttons
    3. move the mouse - the obejct(s) follow
    4. exit follow-me mode - either clicking again, or hitting a button eg, <esc> or <return>.

    The follow-me mode could be selected by a new tool button, or (probably better) using the existing move tool, and a modified click (shift-click and control-click are already in use, so <alt>-click perhaps?).

    Any thoughts or suggestions?

    Cheers!
    Nik

      Its remember me the Light Wave's Magic Bevel tool
      it's a fantastic extrude tool. just one mouse click will create  many extrusions acording to move and velocity.
      this tool would be cool (fast modeling) in AoI

      Given the context of my most recent RFE, it's icing on a crumbly cake, but attractive and doubtless, tasty, icing just the same. ;)
