Issue

Problems users find have to be manually reported to either @TinyNick for addon issues or @ZedDB

There is no automatic process for collecting information to create a report, and no automatic process to store reports. This means only urgent issues are resolved, and often without documentation

Current Workaround

@TinyNick is currently manually creating issues on behalf of users that detail issues they send me in blender chat.

For example I made this issue after Rik made a request:
TinyNick/blender-studio-tools#25

Another example of Andy making a request:TinyNick/blender-studio-tools#31

In some cases I am not quick enough to keep up with all the chats and occasionally, while balancing my other work I miss some details like TinyNick/blender-studio-tools#22

Solution

Using the exisitng Report Issue Opertator as a tempate and

  • allow users to create issue from shortcut in Blender
  • include any error messages from Operator report
  • include blender build version and system information
  • maybe automatically take a screenshot?
