Example
Let’s Learn the basics of blender:
Step 1: To create a general file select general in the splash screen.
Step 2: To work on an object you have to select that object (select object is represented by an orange color).
Step 3: Press Tab to toggle from object to edit mode.
Step 4: To move a cube in y direction(y coordinate) we use the “G” button to move an object in any direction, but if you want to move the object in a particular direction you should use the X, Y, or Z button with the “G”, i.e. if you want to move in Y direction Press g + y,
also press A to select all the vertices in the object.
Shortcuts:
G + X: To move in the X direction
G + Y: To move in the Y direction
G + Z: To move in the Z direction
G + shift + X: To move in any direction except X, i.e. you can move in Z and Y direction.
G + shift + Y: To move in any direction except Y, i.e. you can move in Z and X direction.
G + shift +Z: To move in any direction except Z, i.e. you can move in X and Y direction.
There are three selection modes:
- Vertex selection mode: Where you edit an object by its vertices.
- Edge selection mode: It is a mode where you edit an object by its edges.
- Faces selection mode: Editing of objects using their faces.
Step 5: To resize the object in any coordinate direction Press S+X, S+Y, or S+Z +(no. of times you want to increase the size).
for example:
If you want the double the size of your cube in the x direction then press S + (X) + 2
if you want to increase the size in any direction then press S+ (0…9)
Step 6: Select a single vertex by tapping on one, if you want to select two vertices then press Shift + tap on another vertex.
Blender Manual in Computer Graphics
Blender is a free and open-source 3D creation suite that helps create anything you want, including animated movies, 3D printed models, virtual reality apps, motion graphics, visual effects, interactive 3D games, and more. Being that it runs on macOS, Linux, and Windows which makes it a cross-platform application. It has small memory and drive requirements as compared to other 3D creation suites.
