Plugin to set surface of bricks toward camera

Hello! :smile:

Is there a plugin to set the surface of a part toward your camera? (and resize it properly)

Say that you want to select the surface ‘top’ to be facing the camera.

Example:

Although I can manually set them, it would be far less time consuming if there existed a plugin to automate the entire process.

Started a project some months ago and now I’m suffering from a harsh case of “should’ve done it properly the first time” :sweat_smile:

Perhaps you’re looking for the View Selector tool under the View tab?\

The issue isn’t the camera, it is the orientation of the brick and its surfaces. In the example I posted, the ‘Top’ surface is facing another direction other than the top.

I am looking for a plugin that can flip the brick so that the top surfaces faces the camera and changes the proportions of the brick accordingly.

Found a solution! Shout out to @stravant for his MaterialFlip plugin: Stravant - MaterialFlip - Roblox

You can use it to flip a brick’s material surfaces, which will then flip surfaces and still keep its proportions.

Example:

All four bricks are lined towards the right; if I come underneath the bricks and use MaterialFlip, I can flip the brick’s surfaces with ease and without manually having to rotate the brick or adjust the size values.

End result:

This is an extremely rare use case and I don’t think that MaterialFlip was created for this specific use but I am thrilled that it can. :smile:
