BIG UPDATE
version 0.3.0
I rewrote the drawing routines so its not that hacky anymore.
Now theres settings for highlight colour, vert size and edge thickness.
@kakachiex2 : now faces are drawn fully
I fixed issues with multiple component modes!

wow paleajed your a machine coding thanks for this so awaited feature
yiayyy paleajed this last version is really fast
@paleajed
one last suggestion to make the presel more beautiful can you add to the face presel included the border whit a more lighter color
sometime like this imageā¦
@paleajed
hope you do not hate me for this, but you should be proud of the contribution you have made, one last suggestion but if youāre willing to do itā¦
version 0.3.2
@kakachiex2 : I havent figured out yet how to do a gradient line in opengl, but I implemented highlighting of the entire edges starting from the highlighted vert (maybe this is even better -> easier to make out what other verts are connected to the highlighted one, I often find myself trying to follow the gradient edges and getting lost along the wayā¦) Let me know what you think.
Blender has this already it is difficult to see the source how blender handle this gradient over edges
@paleajed
i found a bug wen presel is active and i call the extrude or inset tool wen insetting and released it give an error and stop working
paleajed this addon is going to be a pain for you because it seems it interfere with some tools behavior
Waaaah! Preselecting! I am so exited! I hope this is possible as an add-onā¦ a lot of things is giving errors at this pointā¦
Here is mine - http://db.tt/P6UYz3Dk
Thrown during adding new vert/edge/face with ctrl-lmb.
Also, please make it work also when select with is set to left in user preferences.
I will monitor this thread.
Also, the brightness slider seems to break the color picker.
Commands that also break the addon: subdivide, knife, select path, edge crease, make edge-face, merge, inset faces, duplicate, select shortest path behaves wrong, vertex bevel, loop cut and slide and unwrap commands. Probably more.
yes i have experience this issue with the color picker
Hey there - this is getting better! Did some more testing with latest(3.2):
There are some errors when selecting single edges/faces, then moving the cursor away from that selection.
Try this:
-Hover over a face
-Click (but donāt move the cursor yet) so the face is selected (you can see the vert gradients)
-Move cursor away and some of the verts will not remain selected.
This seems random - sometimes two, sometimes three verts become deselected. Similar things happen in vert and edge mode when following the previous steps: edges often become completely deslected, same for single verts. This also happens after a tweak-drag: some random components will remain selected.
Tweak-dragging edges/faces:
After hovering to preselect an edge or face, if you then move the cursor close to a boundary vert (keeping original component preselected), tweak drag will move adjacent verts, not the preselected components.
G, R, S keys
With preselection on and a component preselected, hitting the G key will make blender think its moving something but nothing moves. Dx Dy Dz appear in the lower left of the 3d view.
With preselection on, and a component preselected, pressing R or S key kills blender.
version 0.4.0
I suppose all of these plus the ones reported by kakachiex2 should be working now!
The color picker issue : I suppose this is a bug in Blender? Ill look further into it.
Should work with leftmouse select too now.
EDIT: G, R and S seem to be working now too, do test though
version 0.4.1
some bugfixes
Havent been able to recreate this oneā¦
I canāt repeat the mysteriously deselecting components, or the G, R, S issues anymore on version 0.4.1, so maybe its fixed!
I skimmed over some of the other tools like knife, bevel, and loop cut - no probs with 0.4.1
few more:
Preselection stops after hitting āCā to paint select
ESC to exit paint select and preselection works again
Preselection stops after selecting with paint or box select.
-Hover mouse over object in component mode
-āCā key to paint select a few faces
-āESCā Key to exit paint select
-First polygon selected with paint select maintains preselection coloring, preselection no longer happens under cursor
-āAā to deselect seems to reset preselection to a working state again.
Preselect stops working after tweak dragging a component.
āAā to deselect and preselect resumes
Edit1:
It may be relevant that I use the following prefs: āRelease confirmsā, and Select with āleftā. These work great with Wacom.
Edit2:
Oops, new Error when returning from edit to object mode:
line 172 in modal
makeseldict
liine 359 in makeseldict
for v in bm.verts
referencError: BMesh
This seems to be related to adding to a selection with paint, box, or just click. if all components are selected with āAā key, returning to object mode doesnāt throw an error.
version 0.4.2
@ba_fjg : Ckey / Bkey selection fixed
tweak problems solved
Can you try if Edit2 now is solved? Information about this is too sparseā¦
To all:
Its getting addictive trying to make this work well, I really wanna succeed!
