As a point of note...

I cant speak for Esper, only for myself, but I didnt do this
by manually moving EVERY vertex individually, but the process
I did use was far from 'perfect'.
And as you will see, the 'merge' idea wouldnt help ME.

Here is what I did to achieve the desired results.

I would select a 'plane' of vertices I want to align.
I would then REPEATEDLY use the SCALE function on ONE of the
axiis's, (either x OR y OR z) to 'flatten' the relative offsets.
This is ugly, as they dont always all get the offsets down to exactly zero.
(A single button click here to zero-out (or 'align') the relative
distances of all the vertices to the 'center line' would be perfect.)

I would then drag the 'plane' to where I wanted, or use the position box
at the bottom to exactly place it.

Alternitively, I would sometimes be working with a 'line' of vertices
rather than a plane, so I would need to 'align' two of the three
axis's. I would follow all the above steps for one axis, then repeat
the process for another. Doing this is two separate steps is fine as is.


So, all in all, I think to solve MY problem, a 'button' would not be
economical, because I cant see a 'mode' that would know which axis
I wish to align, and when.

Nor would a 'configuration' setting be suitable, as you be constantly
jumping in and out of the configuration page, and there is still
the above 'which axis and when' issue from above to deal with.

Nor would one button for EACH axis be economical on the available
toolbar space, seeing as it is a pretty uncommon function.

But if it was added to one of the drop-down menus it would make
more sense to me.


Thanks all...
