I notice if I grab radially 4 points, say surrounding a ball, spread equally on it’s x axis, there’s another matching four points on the ball elsewhere. If I turn off symmetry, my original four points are gone too.
Is there a way to work around this limitiation guys? Am I being a dumb-dumb?
You can uncheck X Y Z and just set the symmetry using the radial slider. The plane symmetry can be used in conjunction with the radial but you don’t have to.
Wow. Why did I not think to try unchecking them all, I guess I thought that the pattern of unhighlighting the axis I selected would continue and no option for radial symmetry would be available.
I think it was a common thing when radial symmetry was first introduced so Stephane “disconnected” the axis / radial mirrors by putting a line across the panel in the UI. This was to show that the axial and radial symmetry were two different entities. The new red-green-blue colouring was obviously meant to identify the axis in the 3D space but also that, for example, only the X axis symmetry can be used with the X radial symmetry and so on. Once you know, you know
