Do I use this function in this exercise? I am staring over with Lesson 2. Since I can’t see the cube in the tutorial, I select the cube in my outliner [which is highlighted in my 3D viewer.] In the tutorial, this reference file is hidden in the outliner. So, at first, I was lost!
In my 3D viewer, this now allows me to ‘see’ which blueprint to select. Following the Gizmo in the tutorial I am able select Front View to begin working. [ To keep the cube active showing orange, I need to assure both Overlays and Wireframe are ON. ] I get confused when he quickly switches blueprint views, but I follow the position of his Gizmo and continue.
Next, I successfully resized the cube’s Top Side /Hat. Yet, to assure I am following correctly, I recheck my Outliner and 3D Viewer with his. [ Somehow, I remembered I skipped around, confused and ended up deleting the cubes top and bottom or front and back!]
At this point, I will make the two Loop Cuts for the notches. [ Select cube, scroll to zoom in, select topside /hat, then crtl+R, F9, 2, left click to confirm.
Next with both Loop Cuts selected: Do you mean in vertex select, highlighted orange? I think in edit mode, I chose ‘vertex select for the vertices selected. Then press Num 7 for top view / blueprint. This returns me to Front/Face blueprint or Ref
Question: HERE’S where I am LOST! I cannot see what the tutor is doing, I only here him. Well, let me try….. I’ll be back.
