Dept. of Subtle - Editing Tools Improvement - Update Feature

Harlan Brumm mentioned this as part of his video on the Subscription Advantage Pack (SPA). David Light also mentioned it and posted a link to Harlan's video to make sure it isn't missed. In an effort to "one-up" those guys with "oh, yeah...you think that's a good post...well try THIS one!" I offer this video, just focused on this change. What change? The Modify panel that appears when you select elements has changed. Previously choosing one of the tools disabled the others. This update now allows you to change your mind. If you pick Mirror > Pick Mirror Axis and realize that you should have selected Draw Mirror Axis...now you can without starting over!! Sometimes something obvious isn't...

Magic. It was a bit disappointing to see the draw axis tool go in 2010 but thay have listened to our cries in the end! Thanks for pointing this out.

It was still there, just a separate command. A bit too easy to pick the wrong one.
