[fixed] information display for two edges - rv3 - 09-03-2018
The information text in the upper left corner of the window seems to be wrong when 2 edges are selected. The third line, I believe, is supposed to show the length of the two edges and the difference between them, but it is always same length for both edges and the difference is always 0.0.
Also, under wings v1, didn't this information text include the angle between the two edges?

Usually the length is shown only for one edge selected followed by its normalized coordinate, which thinking it as a triangle you can find the hypotenuse - the edge length.

Left is v1 and right the latest versionQuote:Also, under wings v1, didn't this information text include the angle between the two edges?Yes. As we can see in the image above you are right about the missing angle.
Thanks for report.

Hmm, that's not what I see. I don't normally use tweak mode, but here's what I'm seeing:

I'm not at all fluent in erlang, but I think the following will fix things:

You find the fix in the Fixes for v2.1.7 (Patches)
