Hi,

It would be great if one could add curves to the same Ornatrix hairsystem after creation. At this moment this can only be done with the node editor. Or am I missing something? (Another way is creating another Ornatrix hairsystem of course.)

When working with al lot of hair the hair is divided in several groups and never in one big bulk of hair. Selecting those groups in an easy way would be nice. The guidechannels option is great for this off course.

An ideal workflow would be adding guides from a set of curves to a guidechannel. (with the posiiblilty to hide this group in the viewport.) Then create another guidechannel from curves by importing some new curves. Maybe this sounds complicated.

An easier way of explaining would be... Having layers with different groups of 'guides from curves' with a toggle for visibility/freeze and their own stack of modifiers. The way i'm doing this now is creating an Ornatrix hairsystem for each group of guides from curves. Where each system is defining a differtent part of the hair. 

I know I can select a bunch of guides and then create a guidechannel for them, but with alot of guides the overview can become quit messy;)

Still enjoying Ornatrix! :)

Cheers,

Marcus
