Edge Fracture - Ability to "Mark for Fracture" Separately - mitchfx - 03-19-2021

It would be nice to be able to only "mark" edges for fracturing in one operator then do the actual fracturing in another operator.  For example, if you do a Voro Fracture, then apply a Displacement operator right after, the edge fracture thresholds aren't quite as effective and getting the areas you need.  I would love to "select" the edges right after the Voro Fracture, apply the displacement next, then actually do the edge fracture after that using the pre-defined edges.

That's an interesting idea, although I'm not sure there's really a straight-forward way to implement it that isn't ultimately confusing to users. I'll have to think about it.
