A video to show specific workflow, involving Bend Clamped.
In reality this can be produced in less time, but i spent some time at beginning to show the commands i'll repeat in the other steps.
I've selected not just an edge (or vert, etc) to report Wings each requested reference (top, center etc), but complete Edge Loops, so that the operation reference could be keept centered in geometry thickness.

Fonte Boa,
That is a nice tip about edge loops. I noticed that it only works in the new 1.5... snapshot version.

No, oort, it isnt specific of 1.5 snapshot.
When Wings is waiting you pick a point (for example, during Clamped Bend), before go to the next step, you are able to do the following things without interrupt the operation:
( a ) use Camera freely
( b ) select an element and then press Space to deselect
( c ) change the mode (vert, edge, face)
( d ) draw marquees to select/deselect
( e ) select an edge and then call Edge Loop (hitting "L")
etc
The last thing was what i did in video to select an entire edgeloop ("L" key) during an operation like Clamped Bend.

Fonte Boa,
You are right... I was getting a crash after hitting L. I must have been selecting a vert instead of an edge before hitting L???
Thanks,
oort

+1. There will always be a place for those oracular strips (Even the strip-teases
)Actually, it's quite a coincidence. I was just thinking ,that now my "base" is a bit more solid, thanks to F.Boa's videos, it's time to revisit those tutors: I think I'll be able to understand them a lot more. In fact, just yesterday I'd searched for and made a link to some of the tutors I'd saved in my comp ages ago.
Thanks a lot.
