proportional modeling wackyness 2005-03-04 - By Brent McPherson
Back
Gene,
The right way to address this is to add an edge distance option to the

I'll make sure this gets added to our database as a feature request.
Thanks.

Btw, whats the official way to submit feature requests to soft? I
thought I remembered having a link to a form on their site but I can't
remember now.
Thanks guys
