This is high on our list - early development has already started but it's quite a big change that needs a fair amount of additional development and testing - our current plan is to have this ready for the January update.
@TrippyLighting - Freeze will 'lock' specified regions of the T-Splines body, to prevent unwanted changes when editing the geometry or adding topology. In the SpeedForm feature, you select faces/edges on your model to freeze, and any downstream operations that would change the shape of the selected region will be disabled (until you Unfreeze that region again). We plan to implement this similarly in Fusion.
We’re working on adding this feature right now, and wanted to get some quick feedback on how you’d like it to behave.
Because of the way T-Splines works (i.e. moving a point will affect the shape 2 faces away in all directions), in order to keep a set of faces frozen on the smooth mode model, we actually also lock the a ‘buffer zone’ of control points, 1 face away from the area to stay frozen:
So freezing part of the model will create two distinct regions. The light blue region is blocked from edits, and is guaranteed to stay frozen on the smooth mode model. The dark blue region will also need to be blocked from edits to guarantee the light blue region keeps its shape, but moving nearby points could still affect this dark blue region.
So the question is: when you select a portion of the model to be frozen, which of these two statements makes more sense:
1. “I want the selected region to stay frozen on the smooth mode model” - in this case what you select would become the light blue region, and we’d need to add the dark blue region around that to keep the light blue region locked.
2. “I want the control points in the selected region to be locked” - here, what you select becomes the dark blue region + light blue region. We don’t prevent you from editing anything outside of the selected region. But only the innermost faces of your selection (i.e. what becomes the light blue faces) is guaranteed to stay frozen.
Any thoughts of feedback on this would be much appreciated. It’s fairly complex to explain, so let me know if there’s anything unclear here.
