Do you know Mister "CROP"?

[Le Discot]

Hi all!!! ;) :)

It's possible to set a different size of your canvas without changin the quality of your work:

"Crop" is different and more powerfull than "resise" setting in Document's buffer.

-What is the result with the "resise" setting when you do a work:
-When you whant to upgrade a 650/650 doc to 1024/1024,ZBrush do an interpolation with the result you know...And you say "BEUUARRRKKKK"! ;)

With "Crop" setting in document buffer,you can re-square your doc like in Photoshop!!! :) ;)

Let see some exemples:

-Go to document's buffer.
-Open the sub pannel.
-You'll see "Resise" and "Crop"
-Tape a different widht and height values.
-Clik on "Crop".
-ZBrush resise doc without changing the quality of your canvas:No interpolation.Juste square doc. :)

See below:

Hummmm....The result is good but ZBrush start the automatic square on the up left corner of your doc.
Do not be affraid...Pixologic team do the things realy good! := ;)

Let see some new script pannel "Cropper".
-Go to Zscript pannel and clik on "load".
-Go to Zscripts.
-Go to "utilities".
-Choose "Crooper" script.

The cropper pannel appear on the Zscripts place under your doc.

Let's see an exemple of the power of Mr Crop:
-It's like Photoshop:
-Choose a different width and height values.
-Choose the lower left corner arrow.
-See the result... :)

This script is realy simple to use...So,make your own exeperiments with the different tools you have in this Zscript. :)

man i was just wishing for something like this, where is the script available?

EDIT: doh i figured it out, for those interested this cropper from 1.55 actually works in 3.1, where the more offical one does not, although the crop outline is invisible.

lol u guys jus went back 6 years into the past löl

[spaceboy412]

Disco, this is true, but there are some good things in the older versions that are gone from 3.1 or can be used with it like this crop script. i mean look how we lost the ability to copy and paste zspheres, i would love to have that back. i've found that a few really old scripts do still work or just need a little rewriting, which is good because theres more added functionality right?
