Knife/line cut & camera move
-
Hello,
I'm trying to cut out pieces out of a sphere using the Knife/line cut tool, to create a spherical puzzle.
As I make the outline for the cut, I need to roll the camera to extend the cut to the other side of the sphere. But as soon as I adjust (roll/pan/zoom) the camera, I lose the previously created cut lines or the cut is partially done, and I'd have to start from zero. This seems to be a bug.
Is there a way to make the cutout line, adjust the camera, and pick up the cutout line from where it was left at?
And is it possible to adjust the cutout line points for a finer tuning, before executing the cut?Thank you for any help you may be able to provide.

Hi OPS,
Yes, the cut is confirmed even with the use of the 1, 2, and 3 keys or rotating around the object with the Option/alt key down, even if you animate the camera and use the G and H keys.
However, even with these options, the Knife stays active and continues where the last cut was made.If you consider it a bug, it is a Tech Support case.
