Tangent Plane (small suggestions)

@dave_cowden , @ilya_baran

Hi folks.

I've just used Dave's Tangent Plane script for the first time and it worked perfectly, thanks Dave.

Two very minor suggestions.  Not sure if they're DC things or OS things:-

(a) The last update included names being added to planes. (Blue text in the top corner of the plane as seen in the modeling area.)  Is there any way the names for planes created with this method could be shown in the same way?

(b) The keyboard shortcut <P> to Show/Hide All Planes doesn't operate on these custom planes.  Could it?

Cheers,

Owen S.

    @owen_sparks  Glad the script worked for you.

    I'm happy to add these if its possible for me to do so, but I think they are OS things.  Based on a quick look at std.surfaceGeometry.fs, and it doesnt appear that I have access to name a newly created plane.  I'm pretty sure I do not have any control of (b).

    With regards to : The keyboard shortcut <P> to Show/Hide All Planes doesn't operate on these custom planes.  Could it?

    Currently no, only default and construction planes are supported. That said your suggestion is interesting and something for us to consider in future.
