This is a collection of intuitive, context sensitive tools to improve productivity that I did to improve my workflow, I've been using 3Ds Max since 2010, but as I am about to join Embark Studios, it's finally time to give Blender a go!
The tools are designed to be used as hotkeys, removing the amount of interaction with the menus and allowing for a less interrupted modeling experience.
This is the first release, and as expected some bugs will be found, please make sure to report those so they can be fixed.
Future releases will improve functionality as well as improve stability.
I hope you find these tools useful and they help improve your modeling experience.
Super Smart Create.
Execute 10 different geometry creation tools with a single hotkey based on selection and context.
Full explaination can be found in the documentation.
Quick Pivot edition with gizmo transform.
Pivot is applied if the gizmo is selected and the tool is run again.
Quick FFD from selection.
FFD is automaticlly applied if the FFD is selected and the tool is run again.

Change the number of sides of an existing cylindrical object dynamiclly.

If two edges are selected, the ring betwen them is selected.
If three edges with equal distance to each other are selected, a step selection will be made.

Smart Extrude with similar behaivour like 3Ds Max shift + drag.
Direction of the movement is calculated based on mouse input.
Smart Translate
A tool to quickly move objects around, it tries to predict the axis of the movement based on mouse movement.
It's pretty simple and only works when assigned to the middle mouse button, this will be updated soon.
