The New 3D Cursor and Modeling Options

Blender has a significant number of tools for 3D modeling and object manipulation, such as the 3D Cursor. Up to now, we have only used some of those tools to create a scene in both Chapter 1, Using Blender 2.8 UI, Shading and Navigator Widget, and Chapter 2, 3D Modeling and Real-Time Render in Eevee. It is now time to see how you can use options such as the 3D Cursor to align and gain additional controls for your Blender projects.

The following is what you will learn in this chapter:

Use and manipulate the 3D Cursor
Cut models
Use modifiers
Align objects with additional snap tools

Brito

Allan Brito is an architect with a strong background in the use of technology in all phases of project development. His friends used to say that he swapped bricks for pixels. Besides working in the architecture business, he also has more than 10 years of experience as a college teacher, helping students to create animations, 3D games, and mobile apps. In the academic field, he was in charge of the e-learning department of one of the largest colleges in Brazil for almost eight years, using technologies such as interactive 3D content, games, and virtual reality as learning tools. Blender is one of the essential tools in his workflow, and he has used it every day since the days of version 2.35 in 2005.
