Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Move to Layer

Scorciatoia:

M

A pop-up menu to move the stroke to a different layer. You can choose the layer to move the selected strokes to from a list of layers of the current Grease Pencil object. You can also add a new layer to move the selected stroke to. When creating a new layer, there is another pop-up to type in the name of the new layer.

Assign Material

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set as Active Material

Sets the active object material based on the selected stroke material.

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Arrange

Change the drawing order of the strokes in the 2D layer.

Bring to Front

Moves to the top the selected points/strokes.

Bring Forward

Moves the selected points/strokes upper the next one in the drawing order.

Send Backward

Moves the selected points/strokes below the previous one in the drawing order.

Send to Back

Moves to the bottom the selected points/strokes.

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Close

Scorciatoia:

F

Tipo

Close All:

Close all open selected strokes.

Open All:

Open all closed selected strokes.

Toggle:

Close or Open selected strokes as required.

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Toggle Cyclic

Toggles between an open stroke and closed stroke (cyclic).

Tipo

Close All:

Close all open selected strokes.

Open All:

Open all closed selected strokes.

Toggle:

Close or Open selected strokes as required.

Set Caps

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Caps

Toggle ending cap styles of the stroke.

Rounded

Sets stroke start and end points to rounded (default).

Flat

Toggle stroke start and end points caps to flat or rounded.

Toggle Start

Toggle stroke start point cap to flat or rounded.

Toggle End

Toggle stroke end point cap to flat or rounded.

Stroke ending with rounded caps.

Stroke ending with flat caps.

Stroke ending with combined caps.

Switch Direction

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Switch Direction

Reverse the direction of the points in the selected strokes (i.e. the start point will become the end one, and vice versa).

Set Uniform Thickness

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Uniform Thickness

Makes the thickness equal for the entire stroke.

Spessore

Thickness value to use on all points of the stroke.

Set Uniform Opacity

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Uniform Opacity

Makes the opacity equal for the entire stroke.

Opacità

Opacity value to use on all points of the stroke.

Scale Thickness

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Scale Thickness

When enabled, scales the stroke thickness during scale transformations.

Set Curve Type

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Curve Type

Sets the spline type for the splines in the stroke component that are in the selection.

Tipo

The type to convert the splines in the selection to. Read the Spline Types page for more details on the different spline types.

Bézier:

Convert to a Bézier spline. A spline converted from a poly spline gets vector handles, while one converted from NURBS or Catmull Rom spline gets auto handles.

Nota

When converting from a NURBS spline to a Bézier spline, at least six points are needed. When the number of points is not a multiple of three a full conversion is not possible and the spline has to be truncated.

NURBS:

Convert to a NURBS spline.

Poly:

Convert to a poly spline.

Catmull Rom:

Convert to a Catmull Rom spline.

Handles

Take handle information into account in the conversion

Set Curve Resolution

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Curve Resolution

Sets the number of points generated along each curve segment (between two handles).

Reset UVs

Riferimento

Modalità:

Modalità Modifica

Menù:

Stroke ‣ Set Curve Resolution

Reset UV transformation to default values.
