Merge threshold
It’s the threshold used for when you press shift + D to merge vertices by distance.
Break Apart
Set the object to break apart as “Target”,
Select the cookie cutter object,
Hit the “break apart” button.
Btw here is a boulder mesh I’ve been using to cut things.
Export FBX
Set the output folder (relative to the current .blend file) and fbx filename (without extension).
Select the mesh(es) you wish to export.
- Note that the last selected mesh (aka active object) will be used to determine the anchor position of your exported fbx.
Hit “Export FBX”.
- If you had only one mesh selected, it will be renamed to the filename
- If you had multiple meshes, a plain axes node called your filename will be created, with all your meshes as its children.
Hotkeys
These are actions I use a lot when modeling. Let me know if you’d like to add something else.
- shift + B: break apart
- shift + Q: select linked
- shift + M: select non-manifold (need to be in vertex or edge editing mode)
- shift + N: toggle face orientation overlay
- shift + T: triangulate selected faces
- shift + V: merge (vertices) at last
- shift + D: merge by distance with specified threshold
- shift + W: unwrap UV
- shift + S: toggle UV seam for selected edges
- S: toggle sharp for selected edges
- right arrow: select next item based on topology
- left arrow: select prev item based on topology
