I can lock the layer and anim8or will still select and delete points from objects in the locked layer

Raxx:
Very Cool Steve! Scaling is much more natural now, thanks! Are you going to do the same for rotation? Are you considering different pivot options (Midpoint/Pivot/Origin/Camera) as well?

I've been playing with points again, and have two comments:

* Double the radius of picking again for both solo and P/E/F mode. It's almost there, but it still needs a little more oomph to get it into "the zone" ;)
* Points are still very hard to pick up when all P/E/F is enabled. For example, take a sphere, convert to mesh, then try fast edit mode on it. It just doesn't want to pick up points most of the time (in flat/shaded views--wireframe is ok though could use a larger radius for points). Points should have a much higher priority and picking radius than the edges and faces.

Agree with that, its very frustrating trying to pick points and I assume we are talking 1140 build.

Steve:
Yes, I'm aware of how difficult it is to pick points. I'm looking into a couple of possible improvements. Stay tuned to this channel ...

johnar:
 One thing i've noticed is, when you deselect fast-mode, the P/E/F buttons stay selected.
 Don't know if this is just an oversight for now, but has potential to confuse, especially newer users.
  I'm just of the mind that, when exiting fast-mode, therefor reverting to classic an8 behaviour, that the P/E/F buttons should also revert to classic. ie: only 1 selected at a time.
 Perhaps not a biggy, but helps keep it simple, especially if you're new to Anim8or.
