Hey Martin It wasn't a request. I think this lock management speeds up the way someone sets the editing scope of envelope weights, that masks not just brush painting but any tool that changes them. I also prefer to use practices that give me better and more rational weights to start with. Added a m

I almost never use painting for weights but, creating groups (list of components), or clusters, to lock their weights with buttons in a PPG should be very easy to code. Or do you mean something like Maya's ngSkinTools ? That looks pretty cool, but since I rarely use painting weights I haven't trie

Something I would like to see as a standard weight painting workflow is to be able to groups weights to rapidly decide which layers are locked and which aren't, so I don't destroy good work I've done so far, by quickly setting up my desired mask. Unlike as of now that I have to lock manually weight

Hey Martin, Good Job! I haven't gone through the code but for performance issue with python, did you think about using `numpy` or perhaps `cython`(to write `C` extensions) or you are already using one of these. - Alok On Fri, Nov 18, 2016 at 8:42 PM, toonafish wrote: > Looks very cool, muchas
