Visibility of Prop Points

I do think that it is important to be able to control the point size as well
though. They are a bit on the chunky side at the mo.

Turn off show wireframe on selected objects.

The only thing that needs to go in for everybody's desires to come true is the
points visibility to NOT be overridden by tools, otherwise everything else is
in place.

120 % agree!
When doing any kind of very fine tweaks to an object I would like to be able to
hide polygons/edges/points _completely_ in the camera view. Right now I tweak a
point or edge, deselect, check the surface = kind of annoying. Please Softimage
, make this possible.

I have to agree with Jabbar here. I think the whole thing can be improved if we
can control the size of the points that are displayed. (Forgive me if we can
already do this but I can not find any control).

On dense meshes I find it hard to see the form of the object because all I can
see is a scattering of red and blue dots and that hinders the modeling process.

Along those lines, I think the display of unselected points in 95% of cases is
largely unnecessary. In my experience, models are usually made up of quads so
the position of a point is already known by where the two edges join.

Just my thoughts on the subject.
