MODELING Resolution slider for primitives Primitives are always at the same resolution when being created. This should be altered so the user can adjust the resolution of primitives. On one hand please think of low-poly work where only very rough models are needed or just because of artistic reason...

Quick Access Bar Maybe you want to integrate a kind of quick access bar like there is in Word or Excel? This could hold the most-used functions, like New Document, Undo, and so on. ‎Fog in viewport Fog fades distant objects out so there is a better perception of depth on a 2D monitor. ‎Curve primit...

Sounds good. Video tutorials are a much better to explain certain tools and such.

Detailing brush MAYBE This is a trivial addition (it already exists as other brushes with zero intensity). And it is something I use from time to time if I am preparing the mesh for a detailed edit. It remains to be seen whether it is better done with a Mask+Refine instead (especially if the Refine...

Multi tool widget Combines all three basic operations Translate, Rotate, and Scale into a single widget. This isn't meant to replace the others, but it's only to be an alternative when you have to do a lot of different basic operations and you don't want to switch between the different widgets all ...

I prefer to give the user the choice. Different color themes to be combined with different icon sets (gray, color, hybrid).

+1 for icons nearly everywhere.

The multi-curve shapes with several different profiles making up a single object... well it is interesting, and perhaps mixed with the Rails and Lathe code you could produce some good shapes - and the best bit is they would be basic Primitives with Editable Curves. That's exactly what I had in mind...

Some last ideas at the end of the week. Radial symmetry Addition to the existing symmetry mode. Different lighting schemes Let the user define lights that shade the objects in the viewport. "Save as..." The current implementation of "Save" is that the program asks each time to where to save the scen...

Will it be possible to use different profile curves for start and end of the sweep (sorry, I wanted to call it sweep since it's not really a loft)?

Simple Loft https://i.imgur.com/et2LBd6.jpg Complex Loft https://i.imgur.com/uWuIodL.jpg Multi-section Loft https://i.imgur.com/tGJ3Fim.jpg By picking the curves in the correct order or by numbering them one could control how the loft is be drawn. Endless possibilities! https://i.imgur.com/BX0xPXu....

Complex Sweep

Creation of lofts using a "profile" and "path" curve. Please make this possible.

Better Blobs http://i.imgur.com/8ajDzeA.jpg New Blob object can use multiple curves to create blobs with holes. Set tool size based on last size Set tool size based on last size MAYBE This is an interesting change! How does it work if you have a huge brush and want to make a small size afterwards? ...

I like the option to either have the menu open or hidden - depending on the project I'm working. So TAB (or any other shortcut) is a good idea to show/hide UI elements.
