Bug Cannot connect vertices in Probuilder

Unity Version: Unity 2020.3.22f1 (LTS)
ProBuilder Version: 4.5.2

Hello, I'm relatively new to ProBuilder but have a fair amount of experience with Level Builders (going back to Quake 3) and even most recently using Blender. I'm currently facing an issue where I'm trying to connect 2 vertices on the same mesh object to each other, but nothing seems to happen. There is no console output, and the vertices do not connect or create a new edge in any way and I can't figure out what's going wrong.

Here is an example of what I'm encountering in screenshot format.

First, I create a cylinder with a Radius of 20, 16 sides and height of 4.


I then delete 2 faces of the cylinder. A face on the top, and one on the side, leaving 2 vertices disconnected without an edge.

I then select the two vertices and click "connect vertices" and nothing happens. You can see the option is now disabled after clicking on it and presumably connecting them.

And as an added bonus, if I then try to "fill hole" it fills the entire thing. Can anyone else confirm this is happening for them, and what can be done to resolve this? It's a real bummer this early in the prototyping process to be encountering these issues. Thanks!

 

First, what are you trying to accomplish? As in, what is the end result?

Connect vertices only adds "edges" between 3 or more vertices . But there must already be a "face" inbetween those vertices.

I always thought it should read "add edge" instead of "connect vertices.
