    I've been playing with a new idea on how to utilize ProBuilder to build parametric objects. I want to essentially record actions conducted with probuilder so they can be modified replayed later with different values.

    Going down that line of thinking I was looking to see if there were any kind of Events that I could hook into the API in 4.0 but I couldn't find anything.

    Is there any way I would be able to track these actions? Ideally without modifying ProBuilder source doe.

    Yes, in the upcoming API there are callbacks pre and post mesh modification.

    Would there be enough information to determine what utility was used, or only that the mesh has changed?

    Is this callback available in the staged 4.0 preview? If so, could I get a nice little tip about where it is so I can play with it? :D

    Something like which edge/vert/face was modified so that one can get the triangles from it could be useful too.
