Question: Rotating Brushes

Lanik · 15th Dec 1999, 09:49 AM

Hi,

I'm working on a level and I've read many tutorials on the net, but none of them I found say how to rotate a brush in a particular axis. How is this done?

I've tried many things and can only get the brush to rotate in the default (z?) axis.

No mapper knows the answer to this?

I hope this is what you mean - I was having problems this evening, till I found out by accident:
Select the brush, click on the rotate brush icon, and hold down "Ctrl + Left Mouse Button" for one axis (don't know which one precisely), and "Ctrl + Right Mouse Button" for the other axis.

If that wasn't what you meant, sorry for wasting your time...

You can also hold down combinations of either the CRTL - ALT - SHIFT keys to rotate on different axis. Sorry I can't remember the exact combination, but if you play with it you'll find it. I found it by accident.

You can rotate them in the different windows. You can also change the rotation in the properties=>Movement=>Rotation. But it's a 65536 so 16384 is a 90 degree turn and 8192 is a 45 degree turn. Then again that's the hard way to do things. Just right click and drag, it's easier.
