Grid and Angle Snapping

PreviousUI Differences Between Basic Mode and Advanced ModeNextRepaint Tool and Jitter

Last updated 1 year ago

What does it do?

TODO
  1. Snap selections to a grid. Duplicate selections at precise positions

  2. Draw brush strokes that align with the grid (especially useful with the hull brush)

  3. Snap the rotation of selections to a chosen angle (i.e. 15, 45 or 90 degrees)

What's it good for?

Drawing along straight x, y or z lines. Building regular structures up by making multiple copies of brush strokes

How do I use it?

Click the Snap Angle or Snap Grid buttons to cycle through angles and grid sizes.

Can I see it in action?

Click the button shown above on the to open the new Snap Settings panel:

The Jitter button is the same as the the button on the Color Picker. It's included here for convenience as can be useful with snapped brush strokes.
