Short description of error
Draw Curve F9 "Error" slider doesn't do anything if curve is set to Poly
In fact, none of the provided settings work

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error
Make a new curve
Edit mode
Use toolbar draw curve (Toolbar - 9)
Switch it's type to Poly in N - Tool - Active tool
Draw any curve
F9 to adjust the Error slider - no effect
Other settings also have no effect
Switch mode to Bezier and the slider works

Guess I have to backflip on this one, this is actually working as coded...
All options that can be seen in the Adjust Last Operation HUD only actually have an effect for Bezier curve type (and dont do anything for the poly curve type...)

Not sure what is the best solution for this, looks like bad design, maybe should be two distinct tools/operators?
Pretty sure this is not considered a bug in the end though

Yes, indeed this would make more sense as two separate tools with separate settings.

OK, lets change this to a TODO then...

Philipp Oeser changed title from ~~Cannot change Draw curve resolution in F9 menu if curve is in Poly mode~~ to Split Draw curve tool in two distinct tools [properties of one mode dont make sense for other mode]

Note that we could hide the settings that don't make sense when polygon mode is set using the property poll callback.
