S

Eliminates irregularities in the area of the mesh within the brush’s influence by smoothing the positions of the vertices.

Deformation

Deformation type that is used in the brush.

• Laplacian

  Smooths the surface and the volume.

  Surface

  Smooths the surface of the mesh, while preserving the volume.

  • Shape Preservation

    How much of the original shape is preserved when smoothing. Increasing the value reduces the effect of having multiple iterations on the strength of smoothing.

    Per-Vertex Displacement

    How much the position of each individual vertex influences the final result. Increasing the value reduces the overall strength of smoothing.

    Iterations

    Number of smoothing iterations per brush step.

  Note

  This method works by applying regular smoothing, computing the difference between the original (blended between start of iteration and fully original based on Shape Preservation) and the smoothed mesh, smoothing these offsets, pushing vertices back using the smoothed offsets, and finally blending in the original mesh based on Per-Vertex Displacement.
