[@CariagaXIII]

7:00 awesome way of closing hole,
12:27-14:32 so zbrush is decent enough be a retopology tool sepecially the snap to surface feature

Thank you Michael. Even if this seems a simple task, I can't find a way or option to straighten an entire edge loop when using the Zmodeler brush! For example, select an existing edge loop, and then straighten or align the edges all at once, horizontally or vertically?
When using Blender it's super simple. I can select my edge loop and scale them, for example, until I have a perfect aligned horizontal edge loop from all the edges.
But I am not able to find a simple operation like this when using the ZModeler brush. Hmmm, I am sure there are multiple ways, but wonder what you would recommend to get this job done. And how you would approach that. Thx a bunch!

for edge selection and scaling, you can use edge action > transpose > edgeloop complete, that'll unmask your edge and you can z-scale it flat like you said. you can also align edge strip with 0 specified curvature in lateral situations: x.com/pavmike/status/1014241038154813441

Thanks a lot for the info, I was wondering is there a way to adjust the edge loop in ZModeler? Like you are able to adjust the placement when insert a edge loop, but once complete, I couldn’t adjust it, to the right or left

hey mike when it comes to bridge actions; zmodeler-close-convex holes , it says not an "open edge" , and not works why ?

[@MichaelPavlovich]

if it's just a visible hole (but still has geometry there, if you havent done geometry - modify - delete topology) it'll throw up that error, but other than that i'm not sure
