Option for automatic reset of tool after use #47

Open shpuld opened 4 years ago

shpuld commented 4 years ago

This is something that bothers me in all radiants, and this one is the one I like the most and seems the most active so I'm creating the suggestion here.

When I use radiant, I often find myself using W and R to toggle translate and rotate tools, most of the time I just need to do one action with this tool and then return back to normal, right now I need to go back to normal manually after every time and I often forget and end up doing wrong actions with the wrong tool.

I suggest an option that would make it work kinda like blender, where the tool mode automatically resets back to normal after performing an action, so for example I can hit R, do the rotation, and it returns back to normal immediately after I've done it. For me this would make it much smoother and faster to do basic mapping especially when placing lots of misc_models that I use often in my work.

Sounds interesting. What about clipper, uv tools?

With clipper I would definitely prefer it to also reset after one clip, but I'm not sure about UV tools, I haven't used it much but it seems like you'd usually do more than 1 action with it.
