Editing¶
Sculpt¶
- Set Pivot
Like Object and Edit Mode, Sculpt Mode also has a pivot point. This is because the basic move, scale, rotate transforms are also possible in Sculpt Mode.
- Origin
Sets the pivot to the origin of the sculpt.
- Unmasked
Sets the pivot position to the average position of the unmasked vertices.
- Mask Border
Sets the pivot position to the center of the mask’s border.
- Active Vertex
Sets the pivot position to the active vertex position.
- Surface
Sets the pivot position to the surface under the cursor.

- Rebuild BVH
Recalculates the BVH used by Dyntopo which can improve performance which might degrade over time while using Dyntopo.
Mask¶
See Hiding & Masking.
Face Sets¶
Face Sets are another way to control the visibility state of the mesh in Sculpt Mode. They are designed to work in modes where brushes are the primary way of interaction and they provide much more control when working with meshes with complex shapes and overlapping surfaces. Geometry can be assigned to a Face Set and each Face Set is represented as a different color in the 3D Viewport. A pie menu to edit Face Sets can be accessed with W.
