FAQ​

Q: What should I do if the model is deformed during sculpting?​

A: You can adjust the depth parameters of sculpting, use smaller depth values for gradual sculpting. If deformation is severe, you can use the undo function to restore.

Q: How to precisely control object position?​

A: Use the "Position" dropdown menu to select precise positions, or use the move tool to manually adjust.

Q: Can I use multiple auxiliary tools simultaneously?​

A: Yes, but only one tool can be active at a time. You can quickly switch tools and use them in combination.

Q: Can the platform size be adjusted?​

A: Yes, after creating a platform, you can use the scale tool to adjust size, or adjust parameters when recreating.

Q: Can attached elements be edited separately?​

A: After attachment, elements merge with the target model and cannot be edited separately. It's recommended to complete all editing before attachment.

Q: How do I delete model blocks?​

A: To delete the whole model block, click Delete directly. If you only need to delete part of it, click Split first, then left-click to select the target part and choose Delete.
