Looking through the tutorials and cant find any shortcut for it, wondering if someone could help me out. I’ve been thinking about making a dome type of roof for a room. Also would be helpful for many other things, thank you!
What they did: With the rotation mode open, shift+c and then rotate it using the green axis by the increment and repeat those steps, doing that until you’ve copied & rotated all the way to where you began. This will create the dome effect that you are referencing.
My only problem with F3X is how when you duplicate something, your selection doesn’t snap to it.
It’s an overall great plugin though.
Sorry for getting off topic here.
That’s why I have to keep F3X & Archimedes (another good plugin that DOES snap to selection) when building haha.
This sounds like a call for @GigsD4X! You can create the base by using those pivot points. Make two parts lay next to each other touching on one side and pivot them like the image below to create a circle. Then I think using a center part, you would copy and paste them and pivot them along that centerpiece to create a sphere and just delete half of it.
Looks like they’re cloning (shift C), and using the number pad on their keyboard to rotate
The shortcut keys for “nudging” on the Rotate Tool are:
4 or 6 to rotate around Y axis ()
1 or 9 to rotate around Z axis ()
8 or 2 to rotate around X axis ()
Tip for remembering them: They’re across from each other on the keyboard!
