Edit the Title Bar

ZBrush Usage Questions
#1

Hihi:) I was wondering… is there any way to edit the information displayed on the title bar?
Currently it shows my full name and I’d like for it to be kept hidden when I do some practicing on stream:P
If you have any info on how to customize the ui/ edit a specific txt document that would conceal my name itd be greatly appreciated! thanks c:

Nope. Load or save a project file and it will display the name of the project file instead of your name.

For anyone coming here looking for the “name” change on title bar, please see also these other options may help you too:

Edit the Startup ZScript

Because the name is only displayed until a Project is loaded, simply edit your StartupZScript.txt file to add a command to load any default project you wish. Every time ZBrush launches. If it’s a small, simple file then the file will actually load almost as fast as the UI is drawn on the screen and nobody will even have a chance to see your name.

Edit Your User Name

You can also change the name that ZBrush displays, replacing it with whatever you want. Please follow these steps:

  1. Make sure that your software is closed and then go to your ZBrush (or ZBrushCore) installation folder. (For example, c:\Program Files\Pixologic\ZBrush 2021) There, run the Pixologic License Manager. (With earlier software versions, it’s called the Pixologic Deactivation Manager.) At the lower bottom of its window, click the Reset button and confirm when prompted. You can then close that application.

(We have had reports from some users that the Windows update causing this error prevents them from running the Pixologic Deactivation Manager due to a “Side-by-Side Configuration” error. If that happens to you, please see this article for how to fix that: "This application has failed to start because the side-by-side configuration is incorrect. Reinstalling the application may fix this problem." - Pixologic)

  1. Go to My Licenses (Pixologic :: My Licenses) and deactivate this copy of ZBrush.

  2. Go to https://login.pixologic.com and edit your User Profile. You need to change your name to whatever you want ZBrush to show. Save the change.

  3. Now launch your software. It will ask for activation again. Log in with your Pixologic ID. Don’t worry about if the system shows that no activations are currently available; simply select the same serial number that you had previously registered with. When you return to ZBrush (or ZBrushCore) and complete the activation it will pull the edited name from your Profile page. Everything should be fine from there.
