Integrated issue creator

Open Theverat opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

We could make an issue creation dialog in the Blender addon. Benefits would be:

It could fill in some information automatically (e.g. OS, Blender version, GPU vendor)
We would have more control over the submitted text - we can check for missing information and request the user to fill it in before sending the report. This could prevent low-quality reports
It could package the opened .blend file in its current state automatically, and check if the file size is small enough

Could extend the blender "Help->Report a bug" feature (or duplicate it). Blender built-in one does save this info:
