The Curve Pen tool makes the creation and editing of curves a breeze What comes nextĪside from working on getting these two patches merged with master, Dilith will be looking at implementing further improvements to the Curve Pen tool, including snapping support, vertex slide, and more.
The goal of the pen tool is to overhaul the curve editing and creation process, by concentrating old and new curve editing functionality and shortcuts into a single tool.

The Curve Fillet Node patch is ready for you to play with in the latest builds of Blender 3.0 Alpha! Curve Pen Tool The Curve FIllet node’s different options in action The goal of this node is to be able to create and control bevel-like rounding of curves at control points. Initially planned to be a regular tool, Dilith opted to implement this feature as a Geometry Nodes node at the recommendation of mentor Hans Goudey, this implementation having the same functionality but benefiting from(and to) the procedural breadth of the system. As per the project proposal, Dilith ended up implementing two major new features at the end of his GSoC tenure: Curve Fillet Node Under the supervision of project mentors Hans Goudey and Falk David, Dilith Jayakody aimed to improve the manipulation and creation of Blender curves, an area which the student had already contributed to before the beginning of the summer. Dilith Jayakody was at the head of the Curve Improvements project, while Cian Jinks was responsible for the Knife Tool Improvements project.
More specifically, these projects tackle two areas and tools that are at the foundation of many modeling workflows.
#CUT ANY ANGLE TOOL SERIES#
While the second post of the series explored the GSoC projects dealing with the VSE and the UV Editors, this third and penultimate post will go through the two projects aiming to improve a fundamental element of any DCC software: Modelling. Episode Three: Ahead of the Curve, On the Cutting Edge This is the third post in a four-part series exploring what the students have achieved during this year’s development stint.
#CUT ANY ANGLE TOOL CODE#
The 2021 Google Summer of Code projects have just wrapped up, concluding ten weeks of Blender development over eight projects helmed by students and supervised by members of the Blender development team.
