Wings 0.98.28 is out.

The Connect tool will now connect all the crossing edges and Hotkeys can finish interactive commands.

Looks great! So check it out!

That’s some pace. Not a week without a release.

#3

that new connect is sweeeeet :thumbsup: :bounce:

#4

can’t wait to try it out

#5

The main new isn’t that: now in Wings it is possible switching commands with keyboard shortcuts! This increased Wings worflows speed! :bounce: :bounce:

#6

I second that! The hot-key command finishing feature is the best wings3d improvement!
:bounce: :bounce:

I don’t understand this improvement. Could someone explain it a bit more? What is the advantage of switching commands with hot keys?

#8

It speeds up the workflow. Let’s assume we have tweak mode assigned to T hotkey, and Connect mode to Q hotkey (the way i have it ;)). Say i want to cut some edges, than tweak them, then cut again.
In old versions:

Q > do the cutting > rightclick to leave the connect mode > T > do the tweaking > rightclick to leave tweak mode > Q >…

In new version:

Q > do the cutting > T > do the tweaking > Q >…]

And you can invoke hotkeyed commands from connect/tweak modes, which speeds thing up even more.

Yeah speeds up workflow incredibly. Personally, I use move free, rotate free, and scale free instead of tweak because I like the ability to switch between them quickly. Now, you can basically move, rotate and scale on the same selection without having to ever press the left mouse in-between.
