Comments on: Using the Pinning feature of BMesh for architectural modeling http://www.blender3darchitect.com/2009/09/using-the-pinning-feature-of-bmesh-for-architectural-modeling/ Using Blender 3D for Architectural Visualization Wed, 10 Mar 2010 03:19:28 +0000 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.1 hourly 1 By: frigi http://www.blender3darchitect.com/2009/09/using-the-pinning-feature-of-bmesh-for-architectural-modeling/comment-page-1/#comment-7537 frigi Fri, 25 Sep 2009 14:48:39 +0000 http://www.blender3darchitect.com/?p=769#comment-7537 @shadowphile: The pinned axes are not stored per vertex but rather are a global effect, because otherwise it would cause problems really fast as you already mentioned. I'm currently working on a good concept to support vertex groups and I think storing the axes per vertex group would be the only practicable solution. At least if it gets communicated really well to the user, otherwise it will be just as confusing. If it even is necessary to be able to pin vertices along different axes at the same time is the question which stands before all that, though. It would be great to get some user feedback on this topic. Personally I think it would confuse more than it would help in most situations. Anyway, such sort of discussion should take place on the wiki because it's difficult and time-consuming for me to check multiple websites for suggestions all the time. Here's a link to the page itself: http://wiki.blender.org/index.php/User:Frigi Just click on "Discussion" at the top if you wish to contribute anything. P.S.: I will also transfer this to the discussion page for future reference. @shadowphile:

I'm concerned though about visibility. Once a bunch of vertices have been locked, it seems like it might be hard to decipher which ones have been locked on which axes. I'm thinking a feature similar to the vertex groups would be necessary, where I can command to highlight all vertices that have a particular axis locked, or something like that.
