@JanCaha Thanks for the follow-up
Hum... The comment you are referring to was instead agreeing to add the option to the Z widget 🤔
So that means a user can enter value for X, Y and check "Get Z value from terrain" at the same time? Then, when is the Z value picked from the terrain: at the initial position (before moving xy), or after the move is done? We should clarify this in the GUI IMHO (and for docs). Would you know why "Apply transform" is disabled in the screenshot? |

Yes.

It doesn't really make much sense to get the z from the initial position, however we could clarify that on a tooltip

Apply transform is enabled after preview is clicked

Hmmm, I wonder if it is safe to skip vertices that failed the transform, or if mNewZValues needs to be matching mNewXYValues in size and we should just return false on exception.

Group those two?
if ( mZFromTerrain && terrainProvider )

Harissou has a point, if calcX || calcY we should be transforming mNewXYValues.constLast() instead
Description
Changed the way how Get Z value from project terrain is presented to the user according to #60512 (comment).
The Z Value and Get Z value from project terrain checkboxes are mutually exclusive, so user can either select one or the other.
Works with both Preview Transform and Apply Transform.
