Small feedback or tip for the hair part - previewing hairstyles

Blender Courses Talk

Hi there!

Just wanted to share a small tip that is not mentioned in the course (so far at least) which helped me comb my character hairs more easily. I didn’t like going back and forth between the Particle Edit and Object Mode to see how my hairstyle was going. So, in Particle Edit mode, you can preview the hair by clicking on Options (top right) > Viewport Display > Tick “Children”

Hope that’s helpful to somebody :slight_smile:

Cheers

Thanks for mentioning this. What version of Blender, is it different to the previous versions?

I find I use hair, and some other features, so infrequently I always spend ages trying to find where things were hidden anyway!

I’m using 2.91 and I believe the lessons are made with 2.82 (not 100% sure). I’m not sure if that’s a new functionality or not :wink:

Ahahah I can imagine! It’s all fresh for now, I’m pretty I’ll forget very quickly :stuck_out_tongue:
