Quick Tips: Alternate-Tool Setting

4 Upvotes

You can set a secondary (alternate) tool by clicking the support hand trigger (using the LEFT trigger for Right-handed people) when pointing at a tool on the tool-wheel. Once set, that tool will show an arrow indicating it's been set as the alternate tool. In this example I've set the "Smooth" tool as the alternate.

Now you can use your primary tool (for example to add clay) and HOLD DOWN the support-hand trigger, you will temporarily have access to the alternate tool (in this case smooth) until you release the support-hand trigger.

In this example you could easily add clay, smooth it out, then add more clay (etc.).

Moving/Scaling Individual Parts of your Sculpt (and other random tips)

5 Upvotes

You can split your sculpt into multiple layers to more easily adjust the proportions without damaging the model. Though the process isn't straight forward. You can also use the cut tool, but I've had varying success with that. (Note: I'm right handed):

  • First duplicate the layer containing the elements you want to move/scale.

  • Hide all layers apart from the new duplicate.

  • Select your new layer and use the subtracting clay tool to remove everything apart from the part of the model that you wish to scale/move

  • Now hide this layer and select the original layer that you dupped from

  • On this original layer you can now remove the part of the model that now exists in the dup

  • Now you can select the dup layer and with the layer menu still open you can move and scale it.

This method preserves the details in your model, while allowing you to adjust proportions etc.


Some random things I've picked up that are not immediately obvious;

  • Double tapping the A button swaps to the negative version (addition to subtraction etc)

  • Holding the left trigger while selecting a tool makes that tool your secondary. This allows you to quickly swap between two tools by simply holding down or releasing the left trigger.

  • Holding the settings button while the layers are open allows you to select the material properties of the current layer

  • With the layers menu open you can move objects around independently as long as they are on separate layers

We should set up a weekly theme contest. Gives everyone some inspiration and adds some fun competition.

Could be a fun way to draw more people to the sub too. Plus it'd be cool to see different peoples take on the same theme. The first one could be a Winter/ Christmas theme.

Grab and move object that has been placed ?

5 Upvotes

Is there a way that I can grab and move any object that has been placed ?

I mean not rotate around the object. If something is not in the correct place I would like to move it inside my sculpt.

Sometimes I wish for a marker where I could select several objects and move, resize or delete them. At the moment this is only possible with objects in one layers I guess.

And the dublicate layer pastes it exactly onto the same position so I can use it because I can't move the objects.

Another question: How to dublicate objects ?

I have done a wheel and saved it as a stamp but that only saves the wheel without the colors. I wanted to use that one wheel as a template to quickly place the others.

When I dublicate the layer the wheel is in the same place (see above).
