[Tip] Vox Layer with spacing

[NilsF]

Hi!

Is it possible to use brush spacing with vox layer?

I have 400% spacing but I can't get it to work with the mask for vox layer. I want it to work like it does with extrude for example(right pic)

Hi

It is not possible using VoxLayer. 

Sidenote: You can also modifying Extrude > Tool options > Edit Brush parameters > Brush Stroke > Spacing > 1

-------------------------------

To add new geometry over the mesh's surface > Select Tube/Array tool. Draw a curve and choose Attach tube or models array

 

* Splines and also Sculpt models can be used to fill with new geometry (attach tube or models array)

Hope it help

Thanks for the reply Carlosan!

Spacing with extrude works for me, but I want the "Vox Layer" mask to work the same way if that is possible.

Also I'm using version 4.9.68

Vox Layer create thin layer around frozen area. Only works on areas.

You need to attach to the surface new geometry models ?

I can't understand what you need to do, sorry.

[NilsF]

Sorry, I'm not good at explaining. 

I want to paint the frozen area with spacing so that I get multiple dots evenly distributed and not just a  line

[NilsF]

Oh I missed the Tube array in your answer. That's exactly what I need. Is that something only available in coat 2020 though?

[Carlosan]

Yes, new Curves are only available in 3DC 2021.

But currently on 4.9.## you can access to early beta releases activating Beta Tools on Edit > Preferences 

[Carlosan]

Workaround only available on Surface mode:

Create a Sculpt layer with your model

Switch to Paint Room. Turn ON View > Show voxels on Paint Room.

Select Freeze Tool

Stroke Panel (E): Select Constant Presure with Border Width = 0

 

Top middle settings, use this values. Contrast can be vary to adjust brush opacity. 

 

Brush Option Panel: Spacing = 400 (just for testing purpose)

 

- Result

 

Go back to Sculpt Room, select Vox Layer tool > Apply

[NilsF]

That's perfect, works like a charm!

Thank you!
