philem: The symmetry tool is used in the truck tutorial. Hi Istonia, thanks for this bit of info, I am having a bit of a hiccup with this, I looked at the truck tutorial, it seems that the way to activate the symmetry is to hit CTRL Q, is that right ? I created a cube with 4x4 poly's and then played about with all the…
Hey Guys, I am having a bit of a problem using a ref image to do some modeling. I reduced the viewports to 2 so I could have a left view and a right view, the trouble is you can only use the BG Image in Orthographic view, which is a bit of a hassle because I then need to extrude a face that I cannot see and cannot rotate…
hi IStonia- I don't have anything to add to the discussion right now, I just wanted to say I've been following the thread for a while now and I'm very keen to see how VW turns out- I suspect there are many others also keeping an eye on this with anticipation :) I also agree with ghib and pior's suggestions btw :) Keep up…
IStonia, could you make the temporary hide selected/unselected object a toggle ? Right now I would like to isolate a mesh to work on it more confortably, but can't since I have to hold the keys. [EDIT]Nevermind i didn't see the hide unselected in modify/object menu Could the creased edge be affected by symmetry as well ?…
Hi guys, its been a while. I have got somthing done. I built a StreamLine Engein and a SmartTips System. I also made it customizable for both the view tools and modeling tools. You can get the free version from here http://digitalfossils.com/Downloads.aspx Hopefully I am in the right direction.…
[Kris]: The selection radius is requested by a few other users up along this thread somewhere. The purpose is to easy sub component selection, but it also introduces problem into multi-selection as you have seen. Also the bounding box display can be disabled in a contex menu which can be opened by clicking a view type…
Thanks Szark. There is a Selection Mode tool, its hot key is Q, its tool buttons is at the upper-right corner of the window with an cursor arrow image. This tool can be used to cancel tools being used. It can also be used to change region selection style marquee/circle/etc. If use lmb marquee do selection, the backfacing…
sorry Istonia, a really quick test before I head off for work this morning. Viewport freezes every couple of seconds while rotating view. This is with a simple cube. Will also try at work with a different video card. I haven't been able to test any of the new features or bug fixes since you started working on the…
Just had a quick look, at this and am liking it, although. First glance the UI does look a bit cluttered. I like the smart tootip thing that popups and tells you what your doing and tell you what else you can do. Theres a problem with using a tablet and the right click menu. I dont know about anyone else but with right…
Heya Philem, I think you're feeling some prickles because this thread is mainly focused on product feedback, and less on learning like you said. But since this is really the only thread on VW, where else would you ask those questions right? Anyway, ghib is right, "The Pole" thread is a great reference for learning how to…
