    No other instructor has gone to such depths, it has made me confident on using the amazing tool, the different handle options are so relevant, as i do use them in illustrator, but now have a better understanding with respect to blender.
    Thank you sir, god bless you

    if we want to snap something we don't need even to have snap mode on. All we need to do is drag the vertex while holding down the ctrl button.(We must have proper "Snap to" mode only)

  • @marcelthevirginian1656
    @marcelthevirginian1656 Před 10 měsíci +1

    I'm having difficulty reading the bezier handles. My handles are only a few pixels thick, making them very hard to read. In your video, your handles are a lot thicker and are much more readable. I set Blender's theme to Light Mode, which didn't help. What setting adjusts this? Is something the add-ons do? Also, I'm using Blender version 2.93. Thanks.
    EDIT: In case anyone else is struggling with hard to read handles, this is what I did:
    I uninstalled 2.93 and installed the latest version and made sure I was using Light Mode. That didn't do anything. I went into Edit > Preferences > Interface > Line Width > Thick. That's made things much more readable.
    It produces an appearance similar to this video.

    • @kchow1879
      @kchow1879 Před 6 měsíci

      @marcelthevirginian1656, Hi, Regarding the handles thickness, I find that you can adjust the Preferences > Themes > 3D Viewport > Edge Width to make the handles thicker. If you have not find out already.

  • @joshua_24.15

    This is very helpful overall. One question, is there a simple way to edit a single 2D closed curve symmetrically? I'm trying to edit a curve to use as a profile along another curve and would like to do it symmetrically without having to copy and scale by -1 then move and join every time I change something to see the results.

    • @christopher3d475
      @christopher3d475  Před 5 měsíci

      No, it's the Light Blender Theme. It was the most current version of Blender at the time of recording. Bezier curves show up better in the light theme for tutorials.

      In Edit mode, use the Curve Pen tool to add a point where you want the curve cut (Control click to add point). With that new point selected, press N to bring up sidebar options. In Edit tab --> Curve Edit panel, select Split at Vertex.

      IF YOU HAD LOOKED CLOSELY, you would have noticed it was the most current version of Blender at the time I recorded it (3.5 or 3.6) but I was using the BLENDER LIGHT THEME, because bezier curves and curves in general show up better for tutorials than the standard dark theme.
