Interactive Modeling Tools

Similar to how the bevel face tool works. Instead of having to open a dialogue and adjust spinners, It would be great to have interactive versions of chamfer/connect edges and bridge polygons. Just click and drag to set the first parameter, and release mouse button and drag to set second(or simply click to ignore second) Exactly how the bevel polygon tool already works.

Thanks for taking this into consideration, Michael. You might be interested in this thread at Polycount. It's a user created script that implements what I had in mind. The interactive chamfering tool is fantastic.

So great idea, and so few voices...

And I want to add an another Polycount thread, as illustration how cool it can be.

Voted, this is a must for intuitive modeling. Would love to see Blender’s paradigm to become the new industry standard along with a mouse centered pop-up caddy for precise inputs.

Since I hadn’t seen this idea, I created one with similar intent: [Modal hotkeys] - configurable hotkeys within the active command environment. .
