Maya Modeling :: Apply Visor Brush On Whole Surface?
Apr 1, 2011Is it possible to apply a visor brush on a whole surface ?
For example, I would like to put grass on a whole plane directly, without having to use the brush to paint the object.

Maya Modeling :: Unable To Apply Boolean On Lofted Surface
Mar 27, 2011I have a lofted surface and would like to make a difference with another surface.
This doesn't work (Difference returns absolutely the same 2 objects instead of Object1 - Object2).
In the attached example, I would like to have a square "window" in the "wagon" shape.How can I do it ?
Maya Modeling :: Filling In A Lofted Surface
Feb 19, 2014So I have a lofted surface (see image below) that I created with 2 curves. I created one curve, then duplicated it, moved it down the y axis, and lofted them together forming a shell looking object.
What I want to do now is fill in the "hole" in the middle. How would I go about doing that? I've been looking around but nothing has worked.

Jun 21, 2013I have used Quad Draw to create geometry on the surface of an object, this geometry and its pivot can be seen in picture 1.I then try to mirror this geometry to the other side of the object's surface using the settings shown in picture 2
I get a mirror, but not based on the pivot, but it seems the mirrored geometry wants to be attached to the original drawn polys as shown on picture 3. Could it be a bug or is this how Quad Drawn objects are intended to behave?
Maya Modeling :: How To Close Nurbs Surface Edges After Trim
Nov 14, 2011I've been modelling in Maya for less than a day so go easy on me!
I'm in the process of making a traffic light and have got a bit stuck on the shade around the light.
I first made a profile curve and revolved it to get a kind of cup shape. The profile curve double backs on itself so the revolve is not completely flat.
Next I projected a curve onto the side of the revolve to get the wavy shape of the light shade, and trimmed the excess off.
Now I have my lovely traffic light shape, but the ends where the revolve was trimmed are not attached. (Because I double backed the profile curve)
Is there any way I can close up this gap?
(I've attached some screenshots).

View 3 Replies View RelatedPaint Shop Pro :: How To Apply Gradient Map To Brush
Jul 26, 2011I was reading a tutorial on Photoshop about using a gradient map on a brush (the case in point was of drawing fire, with four colours, black, red yallow and white, making up the gradient map) such that you'd paint just once to get all four colours from each brush stroke. Here is an example. I was wondering how to do that in PSP X3 Ultimate. I am not new to PSP but I never used the more complicated brush features. Scripting doesn't scare me too much, if it comes to that, but I'd prefer a manual approach.
View 2 Replies View RelatedIllustrator :: Changes In Brush Size Do Not Apply To Strokes
Jan 2, 2014There is one elementary thing about Illustrator CS6 that I don’t understand. Do the following:
-Select Pencil Tool. Make three strokes at random and select them.
-Apply a brush to them, for instance a Calligraphic Brush 5 pt. Oval.
-Deselect the strokes.
-Doubleclick the same brush on the Brushes Panel in order to edit it.
-Choose Preview to see changes.
-Change the brush size to 20 point. The three strokes will change in size, as they are supposed to.
-Click OK. A warning dialog box appears. Click Apply To Strokes.
Now what happens? THE CHANGES DO NOT APPLY TO THE STROKES. They turn back from 20 to 5 pt. Why? Try, on the other hand, to make the entire procedure without selecting Preview. Now the process runs perfectly; the change to 20 pt. is applied to the strokes. My question is: why does Preview spoil the process?

View 3 Replies View RelatedAutoCAD Civil 3D :: Create Dummy Surface And Apply To All Baselines
Apr 17, 2012I am doing some car park designs with Corridors at the moment.
The method I am using is to create a dummy surface and apply surface profiles to all Baselines and Targets (mostly Offset Alignments). This way if I have to change my levels, I simply amend my dummy surface and everything updates straight away.
This works great, but I recently got a (typically random) Fatal Error. I recovered the Recover drawing which was saved and for some reason all profiles changed to Static and I can't change them back to Dynamic.
I know that if an alignment cant find the surface it will change to Static and I assume that during the fatal error or recover process, something must have triggered for this to happen?
Is there any way (other than resampling all profiles and updating each corridor target individually) of making the profiles dynamic again?

Is it possible to select all the objects and create a single object of just the outside surface area?

I dont want to just group the objects I only want the shell so I can use pepakura to flatten the single object out.

Jul 20, 2012I am trying to do a simple retopo modelling. In many other soft you only need to turn on snapping to get your retopo model vertexes/edges following a surface of a hi-res reference object.
Seems I can't do so in Max because it tend to snap to faces of the same object I am working on.
Is it possible somehow to snap to faces of other objects only so the currently edited object faces would be completely ignored/excluded/invisible for snapping?

3ds Max Modeling :: Create A Surface Between 2 Splines?
Mar 10, 2011I'm trying to create a surface between 2 splines. See attached image. I normally do this in AutoCAD very easily but I I'm playing around with the Max modeling tools.
I have tried drawing a spline between them and using loft. But the loft surface does not go between the two splines.
I have tried drawing a spline between them, converted them to nurbs and tried a number of the nurb surface options such as 2 rail and ruled. But they both create a surface but the surface does not go the full length of the splines.

I used the Extrude tool just for visualization. The problem is, working with booleans apparently doesn't work for such objects, it works for freshly created clean polygons, but not for this one, when I try to use "Boolean difference" both objects disappear.
Extruding doesn't work because the faces are still there and I cannot delete them for whatever reason:

My cursor is pointing on the little face, but both are being highlighted. Making a hole through the the "Make a hole" function doesn't work because it only deletes faces as it seems.
