Gumball with aligned directions + normal

Please look at the video from 0:30 and tell me you grasp the huge difference in UI/UX from this:


to

once again i’m linking this:

please ready it.


My understanding on the situation is that there is no “class” for a simple gumball composed by just a single arrow or any other draggable UI element.
The only gumball class accessible is a version with 3 arrows, strictly at 90 degrees each-other.
I think even your own developers would use it if existed, to add functionalities like the one you see at 0:30. My guess is it doesn’t exist. So nobody is doing anything.
Am I wrong? Do you have something better than that 3-arrows gumball? Can you please implement it in rhino commands for 9 release?
Managing control points for SubDs is hell. Same thing with surface control points.

Many surfacing tool would benefit from a global restyle. See the video^.


But also in other situations, for example fillet, we have this 2000-vibes UI:


click-move-click … that makes Rhino feel SO old…
Replace it with draggable UI elements, like in the video:


The problem exist.
Look again at that minute-video. We want THAT.

@stevebaer @Gijs
Please, discuss this thing internally, I’m sure at least somebody can understand what I’m saying.
Make a step forward in time for 9.

Thanks!

Sorry for bothering you all again.

EDIT:

Sorry for my tone, I went overhead.
