Side-by-side enum in dialog box?

jacob_kingery

In the extrude feature, the options of Solid/Surface and New/Add/Remove/Intersect are displayed side-by-side.  I've traced it from extrude to booleanStepTypePredicate to the NewBodyOperationType enum, but I didn't see a UIHint or anything that would cause it to appear side-by-side instead of in a dropdown. How is this done?

I believe this is hard-coded for either our specific feature or that specific enum -- there's no UIHint for this.  We will be revisiting this in the future, but we are working on higher-priority items for now.

It's based on enum name: NewBodyOperationType, BooleanOperationType, ToolBodyType, and SplitType are displayed as text.

I'm glad to hear that I wasn't missing something obvious, and it makes sense that it's not a high priority right now.
