>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>HINTS<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<
- in TEXTURE PAINT if unable to paint 3d obj, then go to
editmode>A>mesh>normal>recalculate outside
- using a tool but nothing changes afterwards? > ctrl A > apply and
command
- MAKE INSTANCE FASTER (as 1 instance instead of many): check pick
instance in node "instance on point"
- 2pi for a full random rotation, tap TAU (because it's in gradiant and
not in degree)
- DOF BLUR not working? >right clic on obj>set origin>to geometry (cause
based on centre of gravity of the obj)
- PERSISTANT DATA FOR RENDERS: memorize data already calculated in
precedent frame
- CLEAN SMOOTH FACES: right clic>shade smooth>data
properties>normal<autosmooth

- PARENTING: select everything>make sure the last obj is the good
one>ctrl+P>parent keep transform>right clic>set origin to geometry or to
cursor
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>MODELING<<<<<<<<<<<<<<

cursor
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>UV EDITING<<<<<<<<<<<<
- ADD SEAM: right click SEGMENT then mark seam
- UNWRAP: select everything then U to unwrap

(mirrors...) (clic on arrow on modifier) > select everything, U to unwrap
> check (by linking material ( in obj mode, select 2 items, then ctrl+L
then material)
- SCALE EVERYTHING: select all obj, then edit mode then A then UV menu
then average island
