I often use that feature, very handy for a quick object smoothing, though some manual adjustments are required at times

I understand that; what about duplicating the vertices together with the edges? Would that make things easier?

My fingers are crossed!

On an unrelated note: let me wish you merry Christmas and happy holidays Smile
