New Mesh "Painter" feels unintuitive

JessV

I just opened Spine for the first time in a couple months and the new weights tool feels really really bad... The way it used to work was perfectly good and I'm not understanding why it was changed? Can there be an option to use the old version of the weights tool? I'd want to revert to an old version of Spine but I've already created and saved my file in the latest version...

Change mode to Direct to use it the same way as before (:

If you want the old way of manipulating weights, that's called the "Direct" Mode.

Aaah thanks so much!

The old manipulation (Direct) is precise but can be tedious for dense meshes.

Can I set "Direct" option somewhere to have it base? Now default is "Add" and I have to change to Direct manually all the time. I use Direct in 90% cases that why it would be helpfull if I could make it as base option.

Makes sense to me, I've opened an issue: Let the editor remember the mesh mode you last used · #235 · EsotericSoftware/spine-editor
