| Summary | 0006360: Feature Request: Preserve patch tesselation fixed subdivisions when creating caps | ||||
| Description | When creating a cap from an end cap, patch fixed subdivisions aren't preserved resulting in an extra manual step. Example scenario: - create a square or rectangular brush - select the brush and create an end cap with fixed subdivisions (say 8 horizontal and 1 vertical) - select the newly created end cap and select Patch -> Cap... -> Inverted End Cap The resulting inverted end cap will not have the same fixed subdivisions as its 'parent' end cap, but rather the default 4/4 vertical/horizontal subdivisions meaning it will need to be readjusted using the patch inspector to the 8/1 so it fits the end cap properly. This is an extra step that becomes tedious after creating hundreds (or more) of patches over the course of creating a map. For this example, ideally the 'fixed subdivisions' value on the initial end cap of 8/1 would be automatically applied to the inverted end caps. The same would apply to other types of cap patches, although for some of them the vertical/horizontal needs to be reversed (e.g. inverted bevel). Implementation ideas: - automatically without any user setting or intervention - make it a 'preferences' option in Patch section - make it an option in the 'Create Cap Patch' dialogue (e.g. a tick box that is selected by default) | ||||
