Dann Posted March 2, 2005 Report Share Posted March 2, 2005 Howdy all. just a few quick questions about the programme mentioned above. I aint use it for a few years, and i need to quickly find out how to achieve a few things. Firstly. How do you make an object transparent? And secondly how do you make a sharp object, such as a cube have rounded edges? If nobody has a clue, then no worries i'll delete this topic asap, but any info would be lush!

(Y) ← to make an object transparent, just disable it. to make it semi transparant apply a material that is semi transparent. to round the edges you need to apply a deform modifyer such as mesh smoother with 1 iteration, but you're original mesh needs to have been sub-divided meaning instead of a square being 6 faces, each of those faces is split up into say, 4 faces.

Dann Posted March 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted March 3, 2005 Here it is, its only something small that im doing for a project managment...er project. We had to design a range of packaging for one of my lecturers products. This is a package for the kettle my lecturer designed. And the actual kettle. NOTE: the shape in that picture is out of proportion. i have changed it since. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
