Title: [solved] How to move brush in a straight line
Post by: feLiZ_naVidAD on December 17, 2008, 05:22:31 PM
I want to move brushes in straight line, but with my pulse some times is hard... Is there any shortcut to press while you move to make them move in 90º angles?

Kinda the shift when you move in photoshop...

change the grid size does not work for me coz i use a very small grid...

Thanks in advance!!!

Alt + <Arrow Key> will move it around in a direction on birds-eye view. NumPad's + and - will move it up and down on side view.


I just drag the brush around though. You do know you can change grid sizes with keys 1-9 and zoom with mouse wheel?

thats what i wanted thanks....

i dont make brushes, i just clone some of the same height or widht and move them around, that with grid size should do the trick, even tho id prefer to move them with mouse in 90º angles (just like photoshop) :)

Ive been mapping for 3 days (about 10 hours in total...) and now with "Space" to clone and "ctrl + tab" to change view allowed me to map in the last 2 hours about 70% of the map im making...

Im very excited about finishing something i can show ;)
