Primitive sorting

[sibarrick]

Turns out you can reorder prims at will using the delete sop.

Just type the order you want into the group field at the top and set the operation to delete non-selected. Just make sure you list all the prims in your object.

So, for a 80 poly sphere if you want to swap polys 71 and 72 just put

0-70 72 71 73-79, and behold 71 and 72 get swap around.

So there you go Anakin78z you can do it after all, no need for otls or expressions in the sort sop.

Wow. That's pretty handy.

Can't wait to confuse myself with that one, someday very soon.

Great find!

Gah ... does that mean we can never change that behaviour now like for example, keeping the original order? I can easily see someone submitting a bug for that.

You can only take it away if you replace it with something else that does the same job. That should be the rule with all "features" and features.

If you put the order in the pattern field it works as expected, only if you put it in the group field at the top does it use the order as you enter it.
