| 00:03 | Welcome to the series of Blender Tutorials. |
| 00:07 | This tutorial is about the 3D Cursor in Blender 2.59. |
| 00:15 | This script has been contributed by Chirag Raman and edited by Monisha Banerjee. |
| 00:25 | After watching this tutorial, we shall learn- what is 3D cursor? |
| 00:32 | How to add new objects to the 3D view in Blender using 3D cursor and the snapping options for 3D cursor in Blender. |
| 00:46 | I assume that you already know how to install Blender on your system. |
| 00:51 | If not, please refer to our earlier tutorials on Installing Blender. |
| 00:57 | The 3D Cursor is the red and white ring with the cross-hair that you see at the centre of the Blender screen. |
| 01:06 | Let us see the 3D cursor in Blender. To do that, we need to open Blender. |
| 01:12 | There are two ways to open Blender. |
| 01:15 | First, go to the Blender icon on the desktop. Right-click the Blender icon. Left-click Open. |
| 01:27 | The second and easier way to open Blender is left double-click the Blender icon on the desktop. |
| 01:42 | This is Blender 2.59. Please note that the screen resolution shown here is 1024 by 768 pixels. |
| 01:54 | The font size in the Blender interface has been increased so that you can understand all the options given. |
| 02:01 | To learn how to increase the Interface font size, please see the tutorial on User Preferences. |
| 02:12 | This is known as the welcome page or splash screen. It shows some useful reference links for learning about Blender. |
| 02:20 | To remove the splash screen, press ESC on your keyboard or |
| 02:25 | left-click mouse anywhere on the Blender interface other than splash screen. |
| 02:32 | Now you can see the default Blender workspace. |
| 02:37 | The 3D cursor is right at the centre of the screen, surrounded by the cube. |
| 02:43 | We can’t see the cursor properly, so we must delete the cube. |
| 02:48 | By default, the cube is already selected. |
| 02:51 | To delete it, press the Delete button on the keyboard. Left-click Delete. |
| 02:58 | There, you might be able to see the 3D cursor better now. |
| 03:04 | The primary purpose of the 3D Cursor is to specify the location of a new object added to the 3D scene. |
| 03:15 | Go to ADD >> Mesh. Left-click Cube. |
| 03:19 | You can also use key board shortcut shift & A to add new objects to the 3D view. |
| 03:27 | A new cube is added to the 3D view. |
| 03:30 | As you can see, the new cube has appeared on the same location as the 3D cursor. |
| 03:38 | Now, let us see how we can add a new object to a new location. |
| 03:44 | First, we need to move the 3D cursor to a new location. |
| 03:48 | To do this, left-click at any location in the 3D space. |
| 03:53 | I am clicking to the left side of the cube. |
| 03:59 | Shift & A to add a new object, Mesh. Left-click UV sphere. |
| 04:10 | The UV sphere appears at the new location of the 3D cursor. |
| 04:15 | Now, we shall see the snapping options for the 3D cursor. |
| 04:22 | Go to Object. Go to Snap. This is the Snap menu. |
| 04:29 | There are various options here. |
| 04:31 | You can also use the keyboard shortcut Shift & S. |
| 04:38 | Selection to cursor snaps the selected item to the 3D cursor. |
| 04:45 | For example, let us snap the cube to the 3D cursor. |
| 04:50 | Right-click on the cube. Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. |
| 04:58 | Left-click Selection to cursor. The cube snaps to the 3D cursor. |
| 05:06 | Now let's move the cube to the right. Left-click green handle, hold and drag your mouse to the right. |
| 05:17 | For keyboard shortcut, Press G&Y. |
| 05:23 | To learn more about moving objects in the 3D view, see the tutorial on Basic description of Blender interface. |
| 05:35 | Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. Left-click Cursor to Selected. |
| 05:43 | The 3D cursor snaps to the centre of the cube in the new location. |
| 05:50 | In case you have more than 1 object selected at the same time, say the cube and the UV sphere here, |
| 05:59 | Cursor to selected snaps the 3D cursor at the centre of the two objects selected. |
| 06:07 | Let me demonstrate. As you can see, the cube is already selected. |
| 06:12 | Shift plus right click to select the UV sphere. So now, you have two objects selected at the same time. |
| 06:22 | Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. Click Cursor to selected. |
| 06:30 | The 3D cursor snaps to the centre of the two selected objects. |
| 06:36 | Now, Shift plus right click the lamp. Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. |
| 06:47 | Click Cursor to Selected. The 3D cursor snaps to the centre of the 3 selected objects. |
| 06:58 | Click on any point in the 3D view to move the 3D cursor. I am clicking to the bottom right. |
| 07:07 | Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. |
| 07:12 | Click Cursor to Center. The 3D cursor snaps to the centre of the 3D view. |
| 07:22 | Press A on the keyboard to deselect the objects. |
| 07:28 | Now, right-click the UV sphere. Press A to deselect it. |
| 07:39 | Shift & S to pull up the snap menu. |
| 07:44 | Click Cursor to active. |
| 07:47 | The 3D cursor snaps to the centre of the UV sphere, the last active selection. |
| 07:56 | The 3D cursor provides additional benefits when used as a pivot point while modeling |
| 08:03 | but we shall look at that in later tutorials. |
| 08:08 | Now, try to add new objects to the 3D view in different locations using the 3D cursor. |
| 08:16 | After that, explore the snapping options in the snap menu. All the best! |
| 08:26 | So, that wraps up our tutorial on Blender’s 3D Cursor. |
