Split model in 1/2

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hi All

I’m new to Zbrush, have a question I have a model I’ve design and would like to split it 1/2,
In CAD software , I would normally, split a body using say the Global ZY plane.

Is there some way in Zbrush accurately split a model?or do I just have to eye ball it with a trim brush?

Cheers, stephen

Hello @stevecimo

You can create 2 polygroups of the 2 halves by using the Selection Brushes (Ctrl+Shift). Hide one half then use “GroupVisible” in “Tool > Polygroups” which will assign a different polygroup to the visible half. Unhide the other half then do a “Groups Split” in “Tool > Subtool > Split” to split it into 2 subtools.
