Holy moly, Thanks a ton!
I’m so glad I scrolled down this post!
A lot of tutorial videos use the curve helper script and I saw a lot of comments mentioning the deleted post. Will be sure to let them know there’s an updated link. @marcus_civis Thanks for reuploading!
Nice to have found this thread again.
I’m looking for a very handy macro or zscript I used to have as a button in my custom ZBrush UI:
- It created an Adaptive Skin from the active ZSpheres subtool,
- auto-appended the skin as a subtool to the active tool,
- and auto-deleted the redundant separate skin tool.
Does anyone know if that can still be downloaded somewhere? Or would it maybe be easy to recreate?
Many thanks in advance.
I just realized that this must have been a macro, not a script.
Just recreated it using the ZBrush Macro record functions, and it works nicely! The only minor drawback is that the ZSphere subtool needs to have the standard “Skin_ZSphere1_1” name for the macro to work. Would be nice if that could be name-independent. But I’m happy anyway.
Sorry not to reply to this earlier. Here’s a version that will work with any ZSphere names:

HTH,

That’s great, thanks a lot @marcus_civis , much appreciated!
A little additional note to anyone who’d also like to use this script: I personally prefer to have the ZSphere skin inserted in stead of appended, so I changed “Append” to “Insert” in the script (and renamed the file to ‘InsertSkin.txt’ ).
ZFullscreen
Macro that Fullscreen zbrush. Only canvas shown. Hides: Title bar // Side panels+ clickeables (top left right bottom) // Notes top left // Menu bar.
Is a combination of marcus_civis scripts + my code.
Default vs My interface
On my interface i have hidden the rectangle + thumbnail + history bar
To hide the side panels
PREFERENCES > interface >float menu (add shorcut with CTRL + ALT , i use “Tab” for those panels and “CTRL+F” for fullscreen)
To hide white rectangle
PREFERENCES > EDIT > DRAW TRANSFORMATION BORDER
To hide Thumbnail
PREFERENCES > Thumbnail > Thumbnail
To hide history bar
PREFERENCES > Undo history > Show undo selector
