Threaded Sculpt

Takes advantage of multiple CPU processors to improve the sculpting performance.

Fast Navigate

For multiresolution models, shows low resolution while navigating in the viewport.

Delay Viewport Updated

Update the geometry when it enters view. This provides for faster navigation.

Use Deform Only

Limits the activated modifiers on the active object to Deform Modifiers, and Multiresolution. Constructive modifiers (like Subdivision Surface, Mirror and other) get deactivated, because they could give inaccurate results.

Auto-Masking
Topology

Brush affects only vertices connected to the active vertex under the brush.

Face Sets

Affect only vertices that share face sets with active vertex.

Mesh Boundary

Does not affect non-manifold boundary edges.

Face Sets Boundary

Does not affect vertices which belong to a face set boundary.

Tip

The settings for above for auto-masking apply across all sculpt brushes. However, the Auto-Masking settings in Advanced Brush Settings apply per sculpt brush.

Gravity

Factor

Setting the factor allows you to add gravity to your brush strokes, giving it a draping effect.

Orientation

Using another object, the gravity can be oriented to the set object’s local Z axis, changing the direction of the gravity.
