Previously noted issues with edge loops , here also face selections: If I have two parallel subd faces selected - individually their gumballs point in the correct direction but with both selected the gumball doesn’t do what I’d expect. The gumball direction is meaningless. [CC] [subd face…

Is this any better on a normal hexagonal polysurface?

Hi @ftzuk , My hunch is that this is similar to the request filed as https://mcneel.myjetbrains.com/youtrack/issue/RH-86215 for that other topic on edgeloops. I’ll add a note to it for this case too. Thanks.

Just checked and it’s exactly the same. If I seperate those two parallel faces and select them both the gumball is still not as expected. [1] [2]

Therefore we might want to change the topic title to something like: ‘Gumball orientation improvement for multi object selection’
