Modo Transform (edge/face) constraints?

beefaroni

Hi all, I can't seem to figure out whether or not Modo supports edge/face constraints like Maya and Max have. Here's an example in Maya. 

People mentioned using the slide tool but even that seems to not have an "absolute" setting like Maya or Max does.

I've searched through these two threads and neither of them had a good solution for the problem

You can set the action center to Element and choose either a vert, edge or poly

Unfortunately that doesn't quite operate the same as Maya or Max. Im looking for multiple vertices to stay constained to their edgedirection while scaling a line or other feature.

I hope I'm missing something as it seems like a rather large feature that both Maya and Max have.

Nope.

If the slide tool can't get near enough what I want I just slice or add a new loop in.

As far as I know Modo doesn't have that kind of edge constraint.
