Do I understand this right? People critique an idea because they bought themselves a solution?
No, I don't think that's it at all. The swap tool's functionality has nothing to do with the off pegs feature - the fact that it can be use as a workaround in this situation is a happy accident. I'm constantly surprised and impressed by the way the TVP team, and this forum's community, respond to requests and queries. I don't think anyone has said:
"Hard luck, buy a third party add on" - all I see is healthy discussion and useful suggestions.

and third party solutions which often constitute many hours of trial and error and accumulated skills, for which I am happy to pay since I get paid myself for the work I do and which is expedited by these script writers. It's really not all that much money and it would be nice to see if everyone who chirps in with ideas would chip in with purchase orders, but that seems to never happen.

I just push "enter" to go back to drawing mode. I think it's fastes way for me. But I agree. There should be easier way to go back to drawing mode.

I press the Enter button on my Keyboard with the hand I'm nor drawing with to apply the Out Off Pegg transformation. Then I Stay in my drawing. Which i as You think is very Important.
It doesn't work for you?

But a double click seems like a good solution.

Thanks Mads and all the others.
I'll use the enter shortcut till the next update.
Concerning the third party topic: I am not against third party products, but in my philosophy this belongs to be used for very specific functionalities. Say you have a project with a specific graphic style which can not be achieved with the standard TVP tools, then you ask someone to write a script, and of course you pay the person for the work. But as long as it's features that improve workflow for everyone, personally I would never pay anyone exept TVP itself for this functionality. Unless of course TVP states it will never be applied. That's why for me within the topic of this thread this third party tool suggestion was not an option.
Therefore I wish to thank from the bottom of my heart everyone who freely posts scripts that improve TVP for everyone. The same counts for people who are not scripters, but post tools they created. Thanks.
