[Addon] Triangle Faces

Coding Released Scripts and Themes
1

Hy there!
I made a small Edit Addon to merge three steps togehter:
Close Face (selected Border) / Inset / Merge to Center

It is similar to Poke, but without the offset move.
And Poke cannot close open border.
Maybe in future Poke can do that as well?
…
So, here it is:

You find it in the extrude menue [ALT+E]

Yes interesting Cédric.
I imagine a popup menu like F6 to choose with or without “add loop”…

The name “close face” is better, indeed!
Congrats Cédric

Yes we could add some settings, but I don’t know how to do that after activating the tool.

Very easy…
I have already make that…here

Je n’ai pas le temps en ce moment mais analyse-le…

Il y a aussi une erreur car ton execute a pour option self et context, c’est bien mais c’est avec eux que tu dois lancer les actions cad que tu utilises context cad l’objet sélectionné pour appliquer une fonction.
Je sais bien que tu as utilisé son script basique mais il faudrait corriger ce point aussi.
Car quand tu utilises l’addon tu est déjà sur un objet sélectionné en mode edit, bien sûr, c’est ça le context.
