Gesture Tools

Separate from brushes and filters, Sculpt mode also has a set of tools that perform actions to a drawn selection area. These tools are similar to the selection tools (e.g. box selection and lasso selection in other areas of Blender).

These tools do not provide a selection of elements that are then modified, they directly modify the underlying mesh.

Box Gestures

Dragging creates a rectangular area defined by where LMB was pressed and where LMB is released.

Controlli

Move Spacebar

Hold to reposition the selection area.

Lasso Gestures

Dragging creates a freeform area that follows the cursor defined by where LMB was pressed and where LMB is released.

Controlli

Move Spacebar

Hold to reposition the selection area.

Strumento Impostazioni

Stabilize Stroke

Helps to reduce jitter of the strokes while drawing by delaying and correcting the location of points.

Radius

Minimum distance from the last point before the stroke continues.

Fattore

A smooth factor, where higher values result in smoother strokes but the drawing sensation feels as if you were pulling the stroke.

Line Gestures

Dragging creates a line. The resulting action acts upon everything on the highlighted side of the line. The area acted upon is extended in both directions of the viewport.

Controlli

Flip F

Toggles the side of the line that the tool affects.

Snap Ctrl

Hold to constrain the rotation of the line to user-specified intervals. Defaults to 5 degree increments, customizable via the Snapping menu indicated by the magnet icon in the header.

Move Spacebar

Hold to reposition the line.

Strumento Impostazioni

Limit to Segment

The affected area will not extend the length of the drawn line. This helps defining a smaller area instead of extending the line infinitely long.

Polyline Gestures

Clicking places a point in the viewport. Each time LMB is pressed, a new point of the polygon is created. Pressing LMB on the starting point, pressing LMB twice, or pressing Return closes the selection area.

Controlli

Move Spacebar

Hold to reposition the selection area.
