Ohhhhhh @andybak saw the merge on export option! Is it really what I think it is?

AExport?
ZYes
ZThe 3 dots next to the sketch on load
AThat would be "import" if anything! But we're naming it "Merge brushstrokes": https://docs.openbrush.app/alternate-and-experimental-builds/open-brush-beta-docs#_u3ptgwey7elf
A(just noticed that's not the wording I used in the preliminary docs. Oh well!)
MHello
!
A few days ago, while I was working on a project, I was surprised to build a Torus (donut) with a gesture meanwhile using the Straight Edge tool.
It happened suddenly and I have no idea how I got there as I didn't know open brush had that feature
But no matter gesture I tried after, I was not able to reproduce it again.
Does someone knows that trick?
Are there other geometric forms available with gestures?
I am using a HP Reverb G2
Thanks

Tilt Brush Tutorial! We are looking at more advanced uses of the controllers in Tilt Brush, Google's virtual reality art program. We can customize the panels, get more out of the Color Palette and make perfect circles and spheres without a guide. Think of this as an online digital art class! This is a series of free tutorials to teach the basic...
AWill hopefully soon have an easier way to do that via shape plugins 
AThere's also a feature coming in the new beta that might be of interest: https://docs.openbrush.app/alternate-and-experimental-builds/open-brush-beta-docs#_4u7pybbggg1h
MDefinitely yes! Thanks a lot @andybak
OOh ok I'll look into that. Thanks for helping me out! In future I'll make sure to specify the hardware in my question
OI'll give that a try at some point and let you know. I'm just glad it's working again. I use it everyday to make art. Thanks for helping me! In future I'll specify the hardware in my question
AMy hunch would be that it's unlikely too many files would cause that - but you never know! At least it's working.
CI managed it with the capsule guide by straight edge drawing from the center, gesturing over the end (the top or bottom) and moving my hand back to the center again
CIn recent-ish beta versions (sorry I'm unsure which or what platforms) the "detail rendering" quality slider in extras has changed and become less useful for me - how have others found it?
I was wondering what the goal is with that change, whether it's a bug or temporary or more of a permanent thing?
Colloquially, the naming method has changed from "graph calculator" to GPU 1, 2 etc. But the qualitative difference is that they have less dynamic range than they used to have, specifically no unlit option.

AThat's odd. I don't recall any changes to that.
ADo you mean this in Settings?
AThis is "Extras":
AI might be missing something obvious - I don't use this side of things much and I haven't looked at the code. Where exactly is "detail rendering"?
C@andybak yep that's the one!
Athat has never changed to my knowledge
COkay I'll see if I can track it down.
If it hasn't changed then no problem :)
If it hasn't changed then no problem :)
Ai can't see any mention of "graph calculator" or "gpu"?
CI could have been conflating it with multibrush tbh, I'll have to look into it.
AAh. We seem to be using the names set globally in Unity
A
Aso - it seems to have a different list for Desktop and Android
Athat's probably where the change you see comes from
AWell. I've learned something new today!
CYeah that's the one
CThe "creative" options for rendering & lighting are different on Android and pc
CSpecifically, unlit graphing calculator isn't available
Ainteresting. on mobile that slider shouldn't even be there
Aare you using an experimental build?
CAnd the high-end rendering modes make a little less sense from a naming perspective
CYep
Ai think that overrides the panel selection. i.e. it shows desktop panels and ignores the mobile ones
Aso the short answer is "you shouldn't even see that slider on mobile"
A
Athat's the mobile one for regular builds
Awe inherited the experimental build. we're going to ditch it eventually and either fold features in to the regular build or remove them
Abut we haven't really touched it much in detail beyond documenting a few aspects
CYeah I think I met it first on multibrush and assumed it was on Android OB
Athere's some weird stuff active in experimental mode
Akinda crazy that Multibrush just dumped it out there considering their intended audience was Seniors!
CAnyway, it's a really nice feature for tweaking your rendering options in real-time
AYeah. When we come around to removing experimental mode, we'd have to reexamine the quality settings and see if they make sense
CJust a bit of UX weirdness between versions there with naming and options
Athe reason we want to get rid of experimental builds is because it's really confusing!
A"do you want the beta experimental or non-experimental?"
