Q1: What is the Segment Mesh tool in MeshInspector?
A: The Segment Mesh tool in MeshInspector is a powerful feature designed to segment an object using 4 or more points, offering precise control over the segmentation process.
Q2: How do I launch the Segment Mesh tool?
A: With an object in the scene, launch the Segment Mesh tool within MeshInspector to initiate the segmentation process.
Q3: How do I set the direction of the tool?
The tool direction helps identify which part of the object you want to segment (below or above the indicated points).
The direction should be set towards the targeted segmented area.
Q4: What is the significance of using 4 or more points in the segmentation process?
A: Using 4 or more points allows you to accurately segment an object, providing control over specific areas for detailed adjustments.
Q5: How can I indicate points for segmentation?
A: After launching the Segment Mesh tool and indicating 2 points, indicate additional points using a key combination (Shift + LMB) to mark the desired segmentation areas.
Q6: Can I use more than 4 points for detailed segmentation?
A: Yes, for more detailed segmentation, you can use several points by selecting the required area with the key combination Shift + LMB, clicking on the desired segmentation area, and placing new points as needed.
Q7: What happens after indicating points for segmentation?
A: Once points are indicated, observe how the segmented area stands out, allowing for precise adjustments and detailed segmentation.
Q8: What options are available for further segmentation?
A: After segmentation, you have the option to select segmentation on an object or create mesh objects from segmented sections, or hide an original object, providing flexibility in your workflow.
Q9: How can I work with segmented sections as regular meshes?
A: MeshInspector allows you to work with segmented sections as you would with regular meshes, offering seamless integration into your 3D modeling and editing processes.
Q10: Are there any specific key combinations for selecting areas during segmentation?
A: Yes, use the key combination Shift + LMB to select the required area during segmentation and place new points for detailed adjustments.
Q11: How can the Segment Mesh tool enhance my 3D modeling experience?
A: The Segment Mesh tool empowers you to precisely segment objects, offering a level of control and detail that is valuable for various applications in 3D modeling and design.
