| Parametric Form Vase Modelling In Blender Tutorial |
| Red Blue face orientation view look in the upper right corner for two intersecting circles with a drop down arrow button next to it, variable list, look under geometry for "Face Orientation", just be in object mode its a shorter list |
| Operator Search Menu is F3 (Multimedia keys overlap) |
| CTRL+Space to enter fullscreen mode |
| jump from object to object while in edit mode by "hover" + AltQ |
| The selection can also be inverted by Ctrl - I |
| Press "C" for circular select/deselect tool. Normal click to select, Shift-Click to unselect. Or Middle click. |
| With Cube selected in Object mode: Press CTRL + 2 to subdivide. The number you press corresponds to the level of subdivide, CTRL + 3 is usually good |
| In edit mode with one or more faces selected, Press "I", may need to be zoomed out, may need to double press "I" |
| Create new viewports = drag from upper left corner. Close viewports = drag from bottom left corner. |
| Knife Mode, K, C, EnterS |
| ShiftZ for see thru mode, AltZ for enhanced see through mode. |
| Ctrl I - inverse selection |
| Shift + S for snap menu |
| Quads to tris(triangles) - Face > Quads to tris -or- tris to quads |
| Loop Tools Add-On |
| Shift CTRL B for Bevel, roll scrollwheel to increase folds. |
| Shift Right Click, moves curser to mouse. |
| Select Vertex, than from Menu: Mesh > Snap > Curser to selected |
| Zero on Keypad, Camera View |
| Bridge Edge Loops |
| how to use shear |
| Extrude a clay pot |
| To orient the viewport to a non X, Y, or Z view, highlight the plane and press 'shift +num7' this enables dragging up-down-left-fight along the plane |
| To Sphere - "Shift+ALt+S" converts selection to spehere (or circle) |
| Last Operation window - Is the tool specific menu that appears in the lower left to adjust the options of each individual operators |
| Bevel individual verticies into circular shapes CTRL+Shift+B |
| BezierCurve to pipe via Object Data Properties |
| H to hide selection, Shift-H to hide all else of selection |
| to move sections of a 2-dimentional flat plane, extrude is used and not grab |
| Shrinkwarp a large shape/mesh/cube around a cluster of smaller 'joined' objects using Shrinkwrap |
| Select larger or smaller perimeter rings with CTRL + (Num+/-). Regular CTRL +/- is good for zooming. |
| CTRL+A - Change vertex radius, not S |
| O to toggle proportional editing |
| select an object, hide other objects by clicking the "?" button, this works in object or edit mode, and is called "User Perspective (Local)" |
| To toggle wireframe hold z and mouse-left(and click) - or - mouse-right(and click). Same thing with CTRL+TAB for mode wheel. |
| Extrude Manifold - Alt+E+M - While extruding faces inwards, undesired artifact occurs, while target faces highlighted press alt+e and select extrude manifold. |
