Hintsļ
Since version 1.4.5 all modal operators support values typing and simple math operations (+, -, /, *);
Some general hints on using curves in Blender that help me to cable cables faster and better.
Editing Curvesļ
While in edit mode:
Grab (
G
) control points handles to rotate points;Scale (
S
) one handle to move it towards to/backwards from control point;Tilt (
Ctrl/Cmd+T
) control points to rotate cable profiles;Assign shortcut to
Segments > Subdivide
to quickly add new points between selected points;Iād also recommend to assign shortcuts to
Set Handle Type > Automatic
andSet Handle Type > Aligned
. Or use a defaultV
key for a menu for handle types;Flexi Bezier Tool is a free addon for working with Bezier Curves in Blender: it allows for quick reshaping beziers, adding points in specific locations;
