Lazy Mouse

Try this build out

http://www.zoo-logique.org/3D.Blender/index.php3?zoo=com

It has a lazy mouse option in sculpt mode.

Awesome feature.

:eek::eek::eek::eek::eek:

I don’t think you understand what ‘rc’ stands for :slight_smile:

Forget I said anything.
Thought people might be interested there is a build with this feature.

If I may put words into your mouth, what you mean to say is:

It’s not in 2.[4]5 rc2, [and therefore won’t be in 2.45 final.] . . . so I [know and] hope this makes it into 2.5 final.

for people who don’t want to download…

what does this “lazy mouse” do?

S.

Is there a patch available for this “lazy mouse” feature? I haven’t noticed it in the tracker.

I believe it allows one to apply straighter strokes in Sculpt mode ( = less sensitive to small movements of the mouse/stylus). It’s useful for more rigid or less organic objects.

.

I think lazy mouse shouldn’t be that hard to implement, it’s a matter of seeing the mouse stroke as a bumpy curve then using a smoothing algorithm for the actual sculpt stroke, this could theoretically be useful for texture paint too.

Lazy mouse can be a very useful feature.

It definately is, but they rather should implement at least basic masking features instead of just trying to find “new” tools and puzzle a bit of everything together.

It’s in SVN, Nick committed it a while ago. It’s similar to a new feature in ZBrush 3, and it’s very cool - makes smooth strokes on a dense sculpt much easier.
