Hi Martin:
The Edge Slide tool (pre-2014) is exactly for this purpose, and with
vertices you can use hold down C+Move (though YMMV since it's
constrained to only one axis of movement).
2014 and onwards you can use the integrated NEX tools edge/surface slide
options to achieve this.
Yours sincerely,
Siew Yi Liang

Sorry but was that an answer to my question about moving an edge loop
with Move Tool with magnet and MMB drag ?
Because I can't get the same result in Maya.

If you hold down W (short cut key for move) and click it will
bring up a menu and you can change the setting to "Normal Average"

Hi Brent,
Thanks for your detailed explanation.
from a SI user POV yeah that isn't very impressive, but being
a partial Maya user, that sounds pretty cool. Not enough to
make me want to model in Maya but I may not need to move back
to SI when tweaking models for a Maya based project.
BTW, One of the model tools I miss in Maya is the old SI Move
Tool with Magnet. Moving edge loops almost without affecting
the object form is something I can't live without. I remember
how excited I was when learned MMB + drag + Magnet to move
edge loops. I couldn't stop moving edges :D
Is there anything close to that in Maya? If not, you should
add it.
Martin
