ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

In order to Increase my workflow I wanted to setup a custom UI menus to be accessible via hotkeys. After doing this - my new menus appear at the top and example: “brushes I use often” (not real title)

since I have created 4 - they all went to the beginning in alphabetical order - as soon as I click on another menu at the top, for example “preferences” the “stroke” menu opens up…It is as if by creating 4 custom menus I have pushed all the menus over 4…and when i click on 1 Zbrush thinks I am clicking on a menu 4 menus over.

Not only that but whenever I store my configs and save my UI…My custom menus are at the top but 2 of the 4 have nothing in them until I manually go and load my custom saved UI…- which should have been saved if I hit “store UI” :frowning:

So: 1 - is there any way that I could move my menus at the top and 2 - :’(…

Any help is appreciated, thank you for your time

There are two issues here:

  1. The menus get out of alignment after creating custom menus. To avoid problems with the interface, when you create a custom menu start the name of it with a tilde (~), so that instead of calling the menu Sculpting it is called ~Sculpting. This won’t show on the interface but it will ensure that all your custom interfaces display correctly. On some keyboards you may need to use a different key to get the ~ - for example, on a UK keyboard, use the @ key.

  2. Some interface items will not ‘stick’ properly with a custom interface. The plugin that is posted at the bottom of the ZBrush-4R2-Troubleshooting-FAQ will solve some issues but note that some items simply cannot be added such as the SubTool or 3D Layer lists.

HTH,
