Feature Requests

I would like to be able to apply UDIM Sequences to the Highdef Mesh I am transfering from, in the Texture Transfer from Mesh Baker. I believe this is currently not supported (e.g. adding a path ../MyPath/File.$UDIM.tif) or am I wrong ?Are there plans for it ?  

VFX studios work with very large assets and UDIM counts ( 1000+ ). Currently Substance Designer only has partial UDIM implimentation and is lacking futher UDIM support to rival its compeditor Mari. This limits Substance Designers ability to do certain tasks required in VFX work. To make Designer a viable tool choice for node based texture creation in VFX, additional features would need to be added. Full UDIM visibilty inside the 3D viewport is prio no 1! This is currently a huge blockerCompositing node graphs treated as texture sets ( 1 node graph applys to multiple udims for a given material or multiple materials )additional UDIM controls on certain node types such as "bitmap"A supporting tool set for UDIM workflows such as tile selections, copy/paste/transforms etc. There is a huge amount of potential to expand on Designers already great ability, but lacking a full UDIM feature set means VFX artists will always default to Mari to utilise its node based toolset.

One thing I would really like is a special link between nodes where they sync their settings with one another. I use a lot of tile samplers, where I do a lot of random rotation and placement and scale for natural details, and I may use a couple of tile samplers with the same settings, only different pattern inputs: one will be the color images of my pattern, and another might be the alpha mask versions of my pattern, with another being roughness or normal images of my pattern. Creating them is no problem, because you just dupe the first tile sampler and change the pattern inputs. But if you edit values later, you have to be sure to change the same values in each sampler separately by hand, for everything to line up. Or you delete all but one, dupe the one and reconnect everything. Same goes for Splatter Circular, or any node that takes pattern inputs: I'd love a way to sync their settings. A checkbox next to every parameter that indicates that this is a parameter to sync with othe

I'd like to propose a node which would be like a combination of splatter circular and shape splatter. Currently I'm trying to arrange some leaves in a circle and there's no way of carrying over the alpha data  from my graphs I'm using in the new material that I know of. The new node would be able to have colour data fed in much like shape splatter. Thanks 

Flood Fill is an amazing feature, but one thing that's a bit of a headache is that it requires black pixel boundaries to work, and the edge detect by design has to be at least 2 pixels thick. This creates some undesirable results unless you're working at resolutions high enough that the black lines will dissapear when you resize. In this specific case, each cell from the Cell noise node already contains a boundary. If Flood Fill could be calculated without the edge detect, it would be possible to eliminate the black lines, correct?Seems like something like this would give really nice results at lower resolutions:
