Yea, I don't have a problem with it. I use offset for 99% of the
bevels I do so no problems there.<br>

Ahh, I didnt

add inset

to Bevel. I
meant that we

better then
using the tool

<div

<br>
I think the
main
requirement
for a decent
bevel is that
by default the
result would
be as even as
possible with
the same angle
& width
being obtained
wherever
possible. Hard
surface
modelling is
made much
harder by
inconsistent
bevel widths
so I would
vode for the
'Along New
Face' option
too.<br>
That being
said current
functionality
should be
retained of
course as
flexibility is
the key to
robust
modelling
tools. :)<br>
<br>
I would also
like the
interactive
control
handles in the
3d viewport
from the old
inset script
to make a
comeback and
be added to
the bevel (and
inset while we
are at it ;)
), though the
name of the
addon alludes
me atm.
Perhaps
Jonathan
remembers the
one I mean? If
not I will
find it out
later and post
it.<br>
<br>
For the naming
I would use
amount or
percentage vs
fraction too.
I think they
would make
much more
sense to
artists in
general. <br>
