hi
for example if you
1)draw a subD sphere.
2)select the face filter.
3)invoke dup edge - but now you can’t select an edge to dup as requested in the dialogue.
so You go and 4) click on the edge filter, it blinks but won’t budge…
5) now you need to close the dup edge dialogue in order to change the filter.
and only then 6) restart the dup edge command and select the require edge …
the thing is that it is not practical to expect user to remember upfront to switch to the correct filter a command dialogue will require.
*how many other commands has the same issue…? no idea. I assume it’s about the dialogue requiring a selection, and not an issue with a particular command…
got it- will test here and write up bugs as needed- but to be fair, if you have a face filter selected and need to select an edge but can’t that would be expected behaviour…
Would you prefer that tools that have specific input requests to ignore filters?
the is of course expected and correct.
what I was pointing to, is that one does not necessarily set the correct filter before calling a command. so the request is to have the ability to change filter [to the currently needed type] while entering input in a command dialogue. Not having to abort the command in order to set the filters.
