MatchSrf with history two edges

I’d like to match two ends of a surface with history on, which doesn’t work. Is that more of a bug or an insurmountable limitation of how the history works?

Yep, I know… This has always been, in my understanding, a ‘limitation’ but for all the times I’ve asked about it, I do not, right now, see a bugtrack item for it. If I cannot find one I’ll make one.

any updates on this topic ?

it even seams, that a second call to _matchSrf breaks history without a history warning.

in the very simple case below:
do a 1st _matchSrf at (1)
do a 2nd _matchSrf at (2) … will break the _matchSrf history at (1) without any warning.

this seams more then a limitation…

Hi Tom - this does work if you use the MultipleMatches option - i.e. one MatchSrf operation but two edges matched.

thanks for having a look at it…

yes - but multiple matches will have the same parameters for all edges.

… but if I have a more complex matching case - where I would love to have a combination of G1, G2, and maybe different option / parameters for the tolerance or the isocurve style - it will fail.
… and still the second matchSrf will distroy the history from the first - without a warning

kind regards -tom
