Hi NightCabbage,

> any other gems hiding away? :)

Well, they're only hidden if you have not read the help file... :)

The ones that don't have buttons yet are listed in the "Additional commands" section of the help file here:

That may be similar to where they actually end up going as the official non-temporary place.

But in general I try to avoid making some kind of UI with a lot of stuff in it without carefully thinking it through.

What tends to happen is that "temporary" UI ends up getting kind of entrenched and essentially becomes the final version even though it was never carefully designed in the first place.

Yeah, slippery slope, isn't it :P

But, I guess if the commands are useful, they should fit somewhere :)

Maybe there needs to be a "Line Operations" category, where things like trim, extend, and rebuild go?

Yup, the current situation is only temporary. I'm going to try to find a place to fit them.

Well, unfortunately it's not quite so simple as that either - for example the Trim command can trim surfaces or curves, not only curves.

So if it was only found in a "Line Operations" category, that would make it hard for someone to find it who wanted a surface trimming tool.

Similarly at some point in the future I do expect for both Extend and Rebuild to be able to work with surfaces as well and not only curves.
