Getting started - confused about symmetry

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hello Folks,

When I turn on symmetry by hitting “x”, the axis that the 2 red symmetry dots form is roughly at a 45 angle.

The tutorials seems to start out with symmetry drawing evenly on the x axis.

  1. How can I make this the default for all objects?

  2. The Transform menu has an info on x y and z but I cannot control it. It always displays my cursor position even when editing an 3d object. What am I missing?

Many thanks in advance!

Can you post a screen of the model in question and the issue with the symmetry axis? Don’t want to answer until I can see exactly what you’re talking about, might be an easy fix.

I think I got it. I was drawing in a Sphere at an angle without realizing it. When I drag in an object with the x axis at the horizon all is well.
