Floor Grid and Axes

From ZBrush Info

Jump to: navigation, search

A floor, represented by a 3D grid has been added to improve your orientation in 3D space for ZTools and their SubTools.

You can define the Floor Grid color, Floor Grid opacity, the number of Tiles, the Floor Grid Size and the Elevation. ZBrush will now also show Axis of world space, where Red= X, Green= Y, and Blue= Z space. At the same time it is now possible to have a grid on for all three Axes.


This button and these parameters are located in the Draw palette and a copy of the button is also on the right Shelf, located at the border of the document.

  • Floor Grid (Shift+P) - Switches the floor grid on or off.
  • Elv - the slider changes the elevation of the floor grid.
  • Grid Col - change the color of the floor grid. As with other pickers, you can click and drag from this button to any point on the canvas or interface to select the color at that point.
  • Opacity - the slider changes opacity of the floor grid.
  • Grid Size - the slider changes the size of the floor grid
  • Tiles - the slider adjusts the number of tiles the grid will have.
  • Axis - the slider adjusts the length of the axes. The axes are displayed as Red for the X axis, Green for the Y axis and Blue for the Z axis. When your model is facing forwards (towards the camera or you, the viewer) with a rotation of 0,0,0, the X axis will be to the left, the Y will be up and the Z axis towards you. Set the slider to 0 to disable the axes display.
