GG-slide auto merge vertices [solvoed]
generally we do 'G-G'(slide vertex) to quickly slide and adjust vertex position along the edge ,it would be cool we have ''auto merge option/check box ''. Thanks for @Orphydian, the old 'automerge editing' option is under side [tool panel] when we in [edit model]

agreed, this would be a good thing to add. that said, if it's something you need frequently enough, it would be pretty trivial to write a modal operator that did this- off the top of my head, you'd cache the current status of the automerge option when the operator started (so it could be reset when you were done), then enable it- invoke the default vertex slide operator, then reset the option when the operator finishes
I had a spare minute and went ahead and made this. Could use a couple of convenience improvements but as a proof of concept it works:

I saw the updated post, but maybe you should mark it as "Archived".
* @Luis Perez * done! thanks for riminder
* @Luis Perez * while in edit mode you'll find it in the tool settings.
* @Luis Perez * its not in tool settings anymore its in the side panel in the options tab while in edit mode
* @Orphydian * * @daniellapalme * I found it :) Thank you very much!
* @Orphydian * thanks!, this is more than enough, thought this option is gone in 2.8.
yeah, other softwares already have a dedicated tool for that
* @Orphydian * how it differs from blenders auto-merge?
* @Pawel Piotrowski * not much its just a quick way to merge them without activating any other option. Maya target weld also has merge to center or merge to target function for this tool. But I dont know why this option is burried in the side pannel along with mirorr and topology mirror. These should have buttons on the header.
