ft click on the mouse to make the surface inside a pen plane. The plane is determined by the first click. Press and hold CTRL to cut off details that are running over the plane.
With a call of command "Smoothing" an additional menu "Plane tool" with a set of options opens:
 |
- Normal source (This option determines if normal and point for the plane should be taken from the first click point or from the current point)
- Smoothing mode (This option determines the working mode of plane tool - (1) - to make surface plane, (2) - to cut off parts over the plane, (3) - to fill holes under the plane):
- Degree (This
option defines how pressure slider influences the plane degree - (1) maximal
degree, (2) - depends on pressure slider):
 |
- Sculptural modeling
16.1. Point on a bottom panel, in menu "Tools". Select "Sculptural modelling".
16.2. Point the cursor to dropping list «Current mode» you will see such choice:
 |
16.2.1 (F1) Drag with pen. Drag the surface piece. Press CTRL to drag along average normal.
16.2.2. (F2) Select and transform. In this mode you can select surface part and modify it - move, rotate or scale.
Select this mode you will see adding such menu:
In dropping list you can see five such work mode (in the brackets before name work mode are indicated corresponding them hot keys):
 |

- Clear. Clear all selection.
- Increase. Grow the selection value on 10%.
- Wide. Make the intermediate area of selection more wide.
- Store. Store selection to the file.
- Restore. Restore selection from the file.
16.2.3.(F3) Free transform. In this mode you can add control points and drag them. Every point limits surface motion. Select point and press 'del' to erase point.
Select this mode you will see adding such menu:
Select action over the object use dropping list (in the brackets before name work mode are indicated corresponding them hot keys):
