Does sketch imprinting automatically turn off if the face is too complex now?
I'm working on a gridfinity project to organize my kitchen, and was sketching on the bottom face of the base plate in order to imprint all of the edges of the holes but it doesn't work. If I sketch on a smaller face it does. Was this added at some point to prevent people from accidentally bogging their models down with unnecessary imprinting? I know I've used it before on more complex faces.

I know there was a change to make imprinting settings saved to a UIHint remember state so it's not always on by default so there were definitely recent changes to the functionality. I don't think I've seen any total failure cases to imprint though. Let me fire up my gridfinity garage doc and see if it cries when I draw a bottom plate.

Well I have example document tabs that were from last year that did imprint when I did them, and brand new sketches drawn on those same faces that are called right next to the older sketches so I can at least confirm that there's a difference in how sketches work today versus how they did in September of last year.
