Soft transform is not working
It works well on my computer. (I use Rhino 7.11.) Maybe you do not know how to use it? The SoftTransform command has no effect on Rhino objects - its sole purpose is editing/changing Rhino sub-objects (vertices, edges, faces, and control points). Read my post about the SoftTransform command: Rhino 8 Development - #79 by andrew.nowicki
SoftTransform documentation is here:
Hi all,
Try to use soft transform both with mesh and SubD but I can’t select geometry then…
Same happen with WIP
Anybody has this issue?
Thx
hi @Toto to set the radius interactively, preselect one or more faces, edges, or vertices of a meh/subd and then run SoftTransform. Does that work for you?
Hi
Tried several times, with mesh and SubD, nothing just happen.
Had the same result with another workstation
Same problem with primitive mesh/SubD
Tought it was a disable fonction?but seems not?
Thx for reply
in that case, pls run _SystemInfo and post back the results.
Here it is

Hi
Did a try with my co-worker computer, same result.
hi @Toto I am wondering if you are running the tool the same way as I am doing, because I don’t see anything suspicious in your systeminfo. Can you make a short (fullscreen) video to show what you are seeing?
Sure, hummm making a video…
Any advices welcome too 
something like this can be done quickly with Windows Snipping tool:
OK ok my bad, maybe I’m getting old maybe I’m tired, or both.
Works fine, sorry for disturbance
Thx
good to hear 
I am having trouble with it not curving or rounding out
Sorry but soft move is not working in vertical position for me in rhino 8.

Can you clarify what this means with a file/screenshot?
This is what I am seeing. Btw this is the command SoftMove, not SoftTransform
Yes, i use the command softmove, but just when I’m generating the radius and I hit click, the command ends. I’ll try to replicate this example (or just upload it plis) and see if it works.
