Yeah, I tend to use certain filters over and over. One of Leveller's
strengths imo is the number of plugin options. When covering large sections
of terrain, it's easier to use the automated approach of filters on a
selection, rather than sculpt. For me, it would be very useful to access
plugins as well from the tablet. The Refresh function would be another prime
candidate...seems to require it a fair ammount on the 3d pane- especially
when using large tiles, and, well to have the option to program the tablet
to remotely interact with Leveller would be great and.... :)
