 I can’t start a new thread yet so I am starting here.


General comment…As a user of Corel painter X since it was started by Fractal I hope that the new vision for TS/Caligari is to follow in the same mindset.


I am having an issue with moving and snapping.


In the Workspace I can’t seem to find the right tools. In Model space I am also having trouble. I have read and watched everything I could and as everyone here I assume has struggled with the interface, I need some HELP-PLEH (mirrored).


If someone can take the time away from your creative endeavors, I would like a detailed step by step (slow) description of how to. To keep it simple from the get go please explain it using 2 cubes as a starting point then 3 then 4.


I would like to create the cubes in either workspace then move the cubes by picking a corner point then snapping it to a corner point of another cube. Select a third cube and snap it to the previous 2 cubes and so forth. I can’t seem to get the right tools selected in the right sequence from the tool bar or the keyboard.


I know this is simple but sometimes the simplest things can be mountains.


Also will this procedure work for all objects?


Next question to come – How to color each of the 6 faces with a different color?

 For the second one, simply use the Material Editor on either workspace or Model side, and use the Paint Face tool. You can then choose the material in the Material Editor, and with Paint Face active, click on a face to paint it. Change material, Paint Face on the next face, etc.


HTH!
