Using the lightbox in ZB4...

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hello everyone, hope all is well with you…

I have a question regarding ZB4 and how I used to work in ZB3. Please forgive me if this has been asked/answered, my lack of understanding of the terminology makes it hard for me to find things…

In ZB3 I used to add textures and alphas to my pallette from the lightbox by double clicking on them so I could easy switch between them while painting models.

When I try this in ZB4 the “texture box” opens, and while it did take a while for me to get the hang of it, I would prefer that my textures simply load for me to use as they would in ZB3…

Is it possible to turn off the texture box option so that my textures and alphas would load as before?!? I was able to preview files from my library, making texture selection easy and more visual.

Thanks for any help that can be offered, it is greatly appreciated.

In ZBrush 4, if your using Lightbox, you hold down Shift then double click to put the texture into the texture palette. The same for alphas into the alpha palette. Double clicking in Lightbox will add textures and alphas into Spotlight.

THANKS!!!

Admittedly, I’ve been “avoiding” ZB4 just for that reason, such a simple solution, thanks so much =)
