Sluggs: Oops! I'll fix it.

[Raxx]

I finally got to try the topo tool in-depth along with mirrored modeling, it's really solid! A few hours straight with no crashes or weird mirroring issues, I almost entirely used just the topo tool for the below (unfinished) model.

A major bug to report: Can no longer select faces on subdivision meshes. There was also a time when the mirrored mesh went asymmetrical I think when rotating some points, but I haven't been able to replicate it.

[Sluggs]

I've come across another problem, this time with the Knife tool.

Because of the picking distance, when I try to slice straight down from a point, the cut is all over the place, and not going straight down, below the center of the point.

Also, I don't know what's happening with this, but when I slice through the edges of the attached .an8 file, they won't undo. If I join solids and then cut through it, I can undo the first cut, but any new cuts won't undo.

Edit: It seems there's a problem when trying to undo cuts in edges, when those edges don't have faces. (I just removed two faces from a cube, made a few cuts in the edge that remained, then when I pressed Ctrl+Z once to undo my last cut, all the points in that edge went (not the end ones), and one of the faces came back)

PS. Undo buffer was set to 100mb

Slugs, I can confirm that the undo problem with verticis and no faces also happenes in 1227 (I was just about to update but thought Id check first)

Its as though only faces store the last setup when using the knife.

Cutting a face and then cutting lines with no faces causes all actions since last face cut to be undone.
If a face is never cut then undo just doesnt work at all, or goes back to the last action before the knife tool was selected.

Thanks Trev! (At least Steve will know it's not just because of me and my crappy Netbook)

[Steve]

Thank for the bug reports everyone.  I'll definitely fix 'em.  Unfortunately it won't be until early April because I'm traveling and won't be back until April 5th.

Raxx: I think I know what I did to the subdivision faces. I'll have a talk with my QA department since they should have caught it! 

[Trevor]

hmm, I seem to have developed a problem with the material editor.

Whenever I make a change to textures Anim8or crashes with a stack fault
ANIM8OR caused a stack fault in module <unknown> at 0000:bf9c98cc.

Didnt happen in or prior to 1222 (I still have that version and have just checked it and its fine).

Also odd is that dialogs are not appearing in 1227, the main anim8or window looses focus and pressing anything will not work, unless pressing Alt-F4 to close the hidden window, then an8 main window regains focus.
Again, fine in 1222.

cute and very professional character!

When i click on the axis selector buttons on the left they behave in a non sensible way.1229+1230.
They appear as you would expect before one interacts with them.
Hope this isnt another function of my graphics card being naff because it seems very strange i'm the only one to mention it,unless someone else has and i've missed it.

 I've noticed that some reported 'bugs' in the development versions of Anim8or disappear after saving and reopening the projects.

Sluggs, when I open your an8 file meshes are invisible , try to download and open it again to see yourself. Maybe you should run the full antivirus check of computer?

Major changes for build 1229:
...
X/Y/Z-Axis Enable Buttons: Changes to LMB-Select One, RMB-Toggle to be consistent with P/E/F buttons.

Is that what you're seeing?

[Hypure]

Raxx is that a modifier your using during the first 12 seconds of your modeling on the fox?

Thankyou Neymax, yes that's solved the problem for me...embarrassed once more.

That's a subdivision mesh. Select a regular mesh and go to Build->Convert to Subdivided

@Steve

I've found another couple of bugs...

1) Can now only move one point of a knot's control handle, not both.

2) When moving a shape/mesh/path via the arrow keys in only one direction, after a short time, the other positions (shown at the bottom-center of the screen), start incrementing, when only one
position should be incrementing.
