perpendicular button?

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hello,
I am relatively new to ZBrush, But I come from a traditional sculpture background and I love it. ONe thing I keep wanting to do though is to pull and push the edge of forms. I want to be able to edit the tool perpendicular to the camera view. Is this feature available? If not could Pixologic Please Please make a a hotkey that we can press when we are near to the edge which will lock the action of the brush a 90 degrees to the viewport. It would be very useful for those of us who concentrate on profile in our making process

Thanks

I’m not sure but if you press the option key with some brushes (like the Move Brush) you are working perpendicular to the viewport.

I understand that YOU the user are perpendicular to the viewport as well.

Hello,
Thanks fro the reply, this doesn’t seem to work for me.it switches to mask mode
just to be clear of what I want, for example, you move the cursor to the edge of the tool, it very nearly goes to the edge but rather than going perpendicular, which would show the brush as a flat line, the cursor jumps to the outside.
I want to be able to push a button when the cursor is near the edge that would lock the angle of action of the brush to 90 degrees from the view.

I am not certain z brush has this feature, but as a sculptor with a lot of experience I think it would be a very useful feature.

Has/can anyone write a script that does this???
