move tool in z xis for zproject

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

hello all,
I’m fairly new to zbrush.
I’m using 3.5

I’m trying to use zproject to paint textures onto my tool.
new doc - import tex - load tool - zproject

since the 0,0 orientation of my tool is on the bottom center of the tool. I can not rotate the tool and paint the bottom side (the tool falls behind the texture).
how cna I move the tool closer to me in the z axis in order to paint the bottom sides?

Thanks!

draw the object on the canvas.

go into edit mode, rotate it a bit (to make sure it’s working right)

leave edit mode and select move.

gyro should come up.

off the mesh drag forward or backward with your mouse/pen. this will move an object forward or backward in Z.

hope that helps.
