This tool makes it so much easier to make clean meshes. Great to see this retopo is so well implemented well done mr Bishop, I especialy like it in editmode much better control. And the fact I came up with the concept makes it exrta cool.

The more I play with this, the more I like it — though the times that it has made Blender crash I've had trouble pinpointing a replicatable scenario, so I guess I'll just have to keep trying things out until I figure it out, or someone else gets it into the bug tracker. Thanks for the video tute, or i might've takes ages to figure out all this stuff on my own.

Hi try a recent CVS build. 1 and 2 have been addressed (a circle appears to 'continue' a line in newer versions)

3 may or may not change – I'm hoping it can be before release. Essentially you should be able to click on the end 'hotspot' as determined by the circle that appears and press the xkey to delete.

I was playing with retopo today and I noticed
1. first of all the lines can act very weird. they move differently than the rest of what's in the 3d view. it might make me sick to look at if there was enough of it
2. Once I find that I need to connect two end points, i can't..
3. and I can't delete a line I drew without backing up all the way with undo, and then re-doing everything after that point. Drawn lines shouldn't be "numbered".

Many thanks to devellopers,
The Retopology tool is wonderfull, and open modeling to a lot of new things more easier ( snapping to a complex shape is easy now ) Congrats !
