Simple UI Enhancement for Object to Cut

Simple UI Enhancement for Object to Cut

Hi all,

 

With the latest Fusion update, we're introduced with the Object to Cut feature and it's definitely a welcomed addition as we now don't have to go all ninja mode in isolating or turning on/off other components that shouldn't be affected by the cut feature.

 

One slight improvement I would like is for the dialog box to automatically be shown when more then 1 body/component is affected by the operation as sometimes we could miss out some obstructing component, and the current implementation requires us to press the triangle button each time.

Default is shown this way which is not so good as sometimes the user might missed out seeing that the operation actually affected other component/body

It'll be nice if it's open by default or it'll open when more then 1 body/component is affected by the operation

Hopefully this simple idea will get enough votes to be implemented. Thanks

hey @O.Tan, thanks for the idea! Implementing logic for the field to auto-expand when the cut is going through multiple bodies will be new work for the team to take on, however we do have logic in Fusion that keep the field expanded if you expand it once. Would that be a good compromise?

That would be a good compromise though I have to mention that the "field expanded if expand once" never really did work as intended for me, not sure cause I worked in DM or something. Would it be possible to have it to permanently stay open (this includes closing and reopen the software) unless the user close the expander back?

Gotcha. We can have it expanded by default.
