Resize Document Window

ZBrush Artworks
#1

Hi all,

I have a problem that I somehow cannot fix myself:

Being in the Zsphere mode (where you draw with Zspheres), I might have hit a wrong button and accidentally resized my document window. You can see it in the attached picture, that the upper right corner shows well, but the object is cut along his legs and the bottom left corner is not displayed in the available window.

I tried to search on google for a way to resize or reset the document window to default. Some options like custom sizing the windows were mentioned but I am not sure they refer the ZbrushCore (which I am working with). All that can be found in the “Document Palette” is shown in the attached screenshot.

Since I haven’t done much work in this project it would be easier to just start from scratch with correct document window. But if this happens to me in the future I want to know how to fix it. Any help is appreciated!

Best regards
Kon

TLDR:
I accidentally resized the document window and I cannot reset it to default view. Any help is appreciated!resized_document_windw.jpg

If you save your project - press File palette>Save As - then press File>Revert (you can safely click OK in the Revert Dialog), ZBrushCore will reload the project and the document will fit the window.

When you load a project, the document is scaled depending on the current window. So if you have the ZBrushCore window less than full screen, the document will be scaled to fit. If you then put the window full screen the document remains small unless you reload the project.

Hi @marcus_civis

Thanks for your hint. Unfortunatel it didn’t solve the problem:

When I resize the program window, the drawing window is also resized and if I make it small enough there are no empty spaces. But if I revert the resizing and make it big, the empty spaces pop up again.

I also tried as you said and saved and reverted the project. It loaded again but with the exisiting empty spaces.

I think I have somehow managed to corrupt the file…I hope that this won’t happen again on me.

At the top of the Tool palette are two buttons - Copy Tool and Paste Tool. You can use these to copy a model from one project to another. So another way of solving this issue is to:

  1. With your model selected in the Tool palette, press Copy Tool.
  2. Open a different project, such as the PolySphere.ZPR in Lightbox.
  3. Press Paste Tool. Your model will be added to the project.
  4. Save the project with a new name.
