[Solved] Problem with using Clay tool and Stencil

[eskay]

I have tired using the clay tool with a stencil to indent the pattern into a voxel cube and had it fail.

If I paint onto the cube surface 3D Coat behaves as expected, it builds the surface up leaving the pattern in the cube.
If however I hold Ctrl and just click onto the cube surface to indent the pattern the whole pattern is cut through the cube regardless of the depth setting for the brush.

Am I doing something wrong or is this a bug?

is your project scale very low ?

[eskay]

The scale doesn't seem to be the issue as the clay tool works as expected except when using Ctrl.  Also the other brushes such as the grow, airbrush, carve, build work fine with Ctrl.

I'm using 3D Coat version 4.7.12.

I tried 3D Coat version 4.7.06 and the same issue with the clay tool was happening in the earlier version as well.

It seems like a bug.

Did you try it and confirm that it is behaving the way I described?  If so I will report it as a bug.

Just to be sure, was "Ignore Back faces" checked?

[Carlosan]

yes in my test

Just tried it in 4.7.13 DX Windows, and using your parameters, it works as expected. Maybe closing the app > deleting the Options.xml file in your MyDocs/3D Coat 4.7 directory will solve it?

[eskay]

I tried it in 4.7.14 DX before and after deleting the Options.xml file as suggested and I'm still getting the same result.  I'll report it as a bug.

Two steps forward and one step back.
