D'oh! Fiddled with some of the options in the 'E' menu, and I'm getting the expected blob effects... Carry on.

Thanks for the reply, but I was thinking that the Blob tool, with a blob-like icon would generate something other than a rectangular shape. This is not a big deal; other tools work just fine to generate the shapes I have in mind. As a novice to the program I'm still a bit overwhelmed by the options and capabilities available. So...what is the Blob tool supposed to be used for? I'm not sure of the tool's function.

When I choose the blob tool, I get a green marquee that generates a rectangular shape. Not what I expected. In the 'e' menu, the first five brush choices are ghosted. Any ideas?

Ha, ha! Just wait & see... This is such a feature-rich program that I suffer momentary brain freezes, but I shall maintain. The online tutorials and this forum are a great help...I'll do more digging before I betray my ignorance. It doesn't help that I'm running it on a laptop with 8GB of RAM; a few hiccups have occurred. Going back and reviewing the new user introductions, I was pleased to see so many Amiga folk. Turbo Silver on the A1000; patience is a virtue!

Greetings, all... I kept on hearing about this program from the good folks at the 3dPrintingToday podcast and downloaded the trial. The 30 days have come and gone; getting the real deal was a no-brainer decision for my adventures in 3d printing. Lots to relearn, but fun. Nice to see a good community to help me find my way...many dumb questions may be forthcoming.

Greetings from a new guy... Is there another video that shows the import and incorporation of those wonderful teeth to the rat? Thanks.
