Member grayOlorin Posted January 9, 2013 Member Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 Hi, I am in the middle of doing some adjustements to a retopo mesh, and noticed that the snap to point of the add / split retopo tool is very sensitive. In many cases, I want to split an edge, but the tool will snap on either point at the ends of the edge I want to snap without letting me divide the edge. Is there a parameter to tune the sensitivity? thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Try reducing the brush radius (I generally use the Bracket Keys on the keyboard to do this, when doing Retopo work), and see if it doesn't behave more predictably. I find too big of a brush size will interfere this way, when using tools like Split/Add or Move Vertices. It needs to be small enough to not affect areas you don't want it to. Just like selecting verts/edges/polys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member paleojeepster Posted January 9, 2013 Member Report Share Posted January 9, 2013 AbnRanger is exactly correct regarding brush size, I do the same thing and oftentimes zoom in more on the area which also helps control the position of the snap.
