Advanced Member T.H. ROCK Posted March 7, 2012 Advanced Member Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 Can set the page to default under Window options. Or press "M" to bring up the material preview window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Psmith Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 The fastest experiment you can do to get familiar with how 3DC likes to do things is this: 1) Click the Voxel Room tab and add a Sphere (Tool Panel) or just add a Voxel sphere from the starting panel. 2) Right click the active Voxel Layer and choose "AUTOPO/AUTOPO with Ptex" and just leave the defaults ("OK, Next, Next" - click these in the forthcoming dialogs). 3) Wait a couple of minutes and click "OK" in the next dialog. 4) Now you are in the Paint Room - at the top of the interface are 3 differently colored spheres, uncheck each one. 5) On the top left of the Tool Panel are the Color Swatches, click the top one and choose a color. To add a material, which will effect the Specular and Displacement that you paint on your sphere, just click one of the Materials and start painting.
