is there a detailed tutorial on how to set up the "add edge" tool? I'm trying to model a horse skull like the realistic head modeling and I can't make the edge or any kind of line. as you can see in the picture, I tried starting out with a square, but I can't add on to it.

Hi CoriDavis, :)
to start (http://www.anim8or.com/manual/buttons/b_addpoint_u.gif)
HOLD SHIFT + LEFT MOUSE CLICK!
see in Manual = http://www.anim8or.com/manual/4_object_editor.html
in "Adding Points and Edges" is easy ok! :) sorry my english..
-
Ooooh! thank you so much!
-
you are wellcome!! ;)
-
so I got that to work, but the "Extrude Edges" won't do anything, and how do I get rid of that square? I've tried every way to try to delete it
-
u have 2 select an esge of a face. if ur in the wireframe view the line will turn green when u select it.
try filling the holes on ur square maybe then u can select it. or delete the points
-
Ok, I changed modes after moving the suare and I got rid of it, but when I try to extrude the edge of the line I made, do I just click and drag? is there something special i'm supposed to do? clicking and dragging does nothing, even with an edge selected.
-
I got it!!! I had to fill the holes first, that was what I was doing wrong
-
Ok, what do I do if one of my squares won't fill in no matter what I do? I tried re-covering the lines in case I had a gap, and it still wouldn't work
-
Maybe the edges are so close, that them seem to be connected, but they are not. I always select the point(s) and merge them to check it up, if I have the same problem. And a sreenshot is always helpfull ;)
