* The spline offset tool only works in object mode.
* The streamline Cut tool(default key: C) will perform context cut on any presenting vertex/edge/polygon selection when possible on activating event. So be careful when you activate this tool.
* Top-left corner of viewport, click the view type label(Custom/Left/Back/...) to bring up the Viewport context menu. check the "Show Vertices" option.

How does the create offset spline tool works?
I searched the help and forum :/

create offset cannot be activated in current mode.

I was watching the circularize video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ndU4ph6uv50
and had to slow it down quite a bit to see what is happening...the letter A in the corner
would be a sample of the streamline tool? how do I setup like that?

I did see a video on how to setup button menu.

another question attach pic...I cannot understand for some reason the edge line splits?
I could not figure out how to join them ..so I switch to point, delete the points so it is one edge again...is this the way...but why is it happening?


Is there a way to see the points in the other views as well?

allot of info to take in...

Tnx

Thank you!

1. Which Boolean type did you used? A-B?
2. You can create an n-polygon and put it behind. Use it as a visual reference shape for cutting out a similar shape on the mesh you work on.
3. You can use this tool, Create Offset Spline.
4. Once the extrusion is created, Tap "Alt+Space".
5. It could be a bug, but I couldn't recreate it. Can you send me the scene file?
6. What is the 'fillet' shape you want to get?
7/8/9. Can't get what you mean. Can you explain in a different way?

As I am moving along trying to understand more.
If you have multiple points selected can you align then instead of doing one by one?

You can use the scale manipulator or one of these tools, Align_X, Aling_Y, Align_Z.

Hello back again at it.
I tried a few things and got stuck and do not know how to fix.
Questions:
1.When I do the boolean it does cut it but always the faces remain and I have to remove them manually.(boolstack.jpg) is there a way to cut and remove everything?
2. You say cut with circle the only thing I got close to a circle is the N-polygon...How to cut with circle?
3.Is there an offset tool...let say I cut something I offset the lines or to add other lines (offset.jpg)
4.Can the push-pull tool be used without trying to snap...I could not figure out this...it always seem to snap to a certain number/distance.
5.Attached boomstuck.jpg something I am trying to do here...I cut it remove the side now they are open and I cannot fix it. if the lines where I cut are blue I can use drawmesh to create a blue plane which is suppose to close it but for some reason it did work(seemed to work before). after snapping it just do nothing and disappear.
If the lines are white and I click it and I try the same draw mesh it move the lines and create a mess.
Bridge cap the solution?
6. How to create a "fillet" at the corner indicated by red arrow?
7.How would you draw lines to also patch it manually?
from the draw mesh I used the lines and convert lines to mesh to get the shape started (like the tutorial)...but got stuck with the questions above.
8.Line colors remain to remind you what was done or can these be changed?
9.How do I select line if I did a chamfer instead of selecting the small pieces?(chamfer slection.jpg)

Tnx!

You can use the "Subobject Transform Slide" tool, https://youtu.be/oPdWZ4IrkuE.

For the wheel well, use the Cut tool to cut out a circle. Remove the geometries inside the circle. Then use edge edge extrude tool to extrude out the well. Or you can create a cylinder and use the boolean tool.

You can build the bottom part mesh manually.
