Tweak mode
Editing objects is faster than ever with the new tweak mode. When putting the nishing touches to
models, you often need to edit a point here, an edge there, a polygon there. The advantage of tweak
mode is that it’s like you are working in the point, edge and polygon modes all at the same time: you
can edit points, edges and polygons without having to keep changing the mode.
Enhanced modeling toolset
Many of the existing modeling tools are now non-modal. This means instant updates to the changes
that you choose to make.
Brush tool
Paint detail, smoothness and much more directly onto your models.
Improved Knife tool
Optimized for R9’s n-gons, you can now make cleaner cuts.
Stitch & Sew
This new tool makes it easy to close holes between objects.
Melt
Great for simplifying needlessly complicated parts of your model, this fabulous tool will melt multiple
polygons into a single n-gon.
Background pictures
Background pictures will now come in at the right width to height ratio. New features allow you to
adjust the opacity of background pictures and use their alpha channel masks.
Interface
HUD
Using this amazing tool, you can display and even adjust parameters directly in the viewport!
