Hi,
I’m trying out the new knife curve & lasso features in 2021.7 and really love them. They seem to have problems cutting out a hole inside of a mesh. Do you have any good tips of how to deal with a mesh like this and cut out these holes?
Knife tool will not cut holes. Paul Gaboury (Pixologic) stated this in one of his recent live streams.
One way to make them is mask where you want them. Make them a clean polygroup with Edgeloop Masked Border. Split off the polygroup into a separate subtool, thicken it up and then (Live)Boolean from your Z shaped tool. Live Boolean will let you tweak the hole subtool before you commit.
