The preset interactive grooming tool settings are an excellent starting point for most grooming operations, but you can also edit the Tool Settings to suit your needs.
To edit the interactive grooming tool settings
- Do one of the following:
- Double-click a grooming tool on the XGen shelf.
- Select
and click the option box
beside the beside any of the tools.
- In the
Tool Settings
window that appears, edit the settings to modify how the grooming tool affects the hair stands and CVs.
Tip: Click Reset at any time to reset the tool to its default properties.
The Size and Strength settings control the radius of the tool cursor and how much influence it has when selecting and applying tool effects to hair strands and hair CVs.
The circular outline that appears when the cursor is above a mesh indicates the brush Size as well as the area in which the Falloff occurs.
- (Optional) Click the pin icon
to save the
Brush Size setting for the selected tool. All the other tools' unpinned
Brush Size settings share the same value.
Tip: You can toggle between Interactive Grooming tools using the marking menu by pressing Shift + RMB. When a tool is active, right-click to access a subset of its settings and the
Brush Falloff Settings.
