Grids

It's time for a new feature

One of the other big request of Amapi is a better support for curves/lines creations. A lot of users are using Illustrator for importing their drawing, but doing this way is not very good, because you have to use two software, the Illustrator file format can generate several points on the same points (not very good for extrusion, punch and other NURBS tools, etc.)

Then, it's time for Amapi to have better drawing tools, and the grids are the basis.
We rework all the grid system, with, as you can see in the animated gif below, a progressive grid, which change with the zoom of the mouse. As you can imagine, you can snap on it

I will post later some drawing process.



As I said on the french part of the forum, it's not an "impressive" feature, but it's a very important feature which missed a lot to Amapi before!
