Hi Michael,
// What would you think should happen if you for example start out and set up 2 chamfer distances and then go to add new distance values at spots along the edges, should it just switch out of 2-distance mode back into single distance mode and turn the 2-distance UI off ?
Yes something like that.
Activate 'use 2 distance' will disable any chamfer point set.
Desactivate 'use 2 distances' will remove the 2nd distance option and activate the chamfer point set.
Would also be great if while the command is active, input data are preserve, so you can switch between a variable distance set or 2 distances without loosing any input data. So it prevent loosing set by miss clicking on 'use 2 distance'.
For the moment it's not working that way. If I 'use 2 distances', the second value will be reset if I disable and reactivate the option.
(but they are probably reason for that).
I have to say I don't like that much when options in the ui vanish, especially when the ui is dynamically resized.
For example if you switch 'use 2 distances' on and off, the toggle button is moving up and down.
Have you ever considering to use a 'gray out' mechanism, when all the options are in place in the UI, but only available under certain condition ?
Here for example a quick test of how the input command will look like :
I'm pretty sure you do already think about it, and you probably want to reduce ui flooding.
