Mudbox 2011, multiple objects question

Fizzly

Hello,

I'm just getting into sculpting with mudbox 2011, and got a question about working with multiple objects.

For example, Imagine having one object as your character and another object representing some sort of belt. I imported the 'belt' object later, after I did some sculpting on the object I started with. Now I just want to sculpt on my character object, not on the belt. I just can't figure out how this should be done. I want to isolate the belt object from my sculpting actions. Hiding the 'belt' object does work, but I do want to see both objects at the same time

Thanks!

On your "Object List" tab, you can click to the left of the belt object to toggle on a little "lock" icon. As long as the lock icon is showing, you won't be able to carve on that object but you'll still see it. Hope that helps!

Ah yes thank you! Exactly what I was looking for

What WarrenMarshall said, and also.. if you simply hover over your mesh and hit shift + F you can lock things interactively in the viewport.
