Curve Tube Behavior

Hey ZBC!

I’m not sure if the the Curve Brush behavior has changed with 4R4 or if I have altered something in the ‘modifier’ or ‘stroke’ properties.

I’m seeing a black and red line drawn along my cursor when the curve is created. Attempting to manipulate the ends or midsection of the tube cause it to snake around. It’s tricky to explain but the tube basically traces the movement of the mouse and pulls the ends, snaking in the direction of the cursor. The curve itself is immediately destroyed as opposed to before when the curve was preserved and it could be rescaled or gently reshaped while retaining the initial curve shape.

Does anyone experience this now? If so, is it the new default behavior or is there a setting I have changed?

Thank you,
Eric

Yes the curves have changed. You can read all about it here:

or in the PDF documentation that you will find in the ZBrush 4R4/Documentation folder.
