How to Create a Mirror Image Part - Additive Invert a Column in an XYZ Grid
To create a mirror image part, VTube lets you perform an Additive Invert on any column of XYZ values. This means that VTube can multiply an entire column of XYZ values negative one. |
STEP 1: Additive Invert a Column in the XYZ Coordinates
Select a cell in an XYZ column to invert, right click, the choose Additive Invert. |
STEP 2: Redraw and Zoom All
If the new part does not appear on the screen, then REDRAW and ZOOM ALL. |
How to Create a Mirror Image Part - Swap any two Columns in an XYZ Grid
To create a mirror image part, VTube lets you perform an Additive Invert on any column of XYZ values. This means that VTube can multiply an entire column of XYZ values negative one. |
STEP 1: Additive Invert a Column in the XYZ Coordinates
Select a cell in an XYZ column to invert, right click, the choose Additive Invert. |
STEP 2: Redraw and Zoom All
If the new part does not appear on the screen, then REDRAW and ZOOM ALL. |
