Common edits and how to do them

Resize a model

Select it, press S and drag, or type an exact scale in the transform panel. Uniform scale is on by default.

Rotate or move it

R and G, with Global or Local axes, or type exact rotation and position values.

Combine parts

Join parts of a model into one mesh with Ctrl+J, or merge overlapping parts into one solid with boolean union.

Cut a hole

Place a cylinder where the hole goes and use boolean subtract.

Split a model

Separate selected faces, or split by material or by loose parts.

Reduce polygons

Decimate to 50% or 20% of the triangles for faster loading.

Change the material

Pick a preset, set colour, roughness and metalness, or load texture maps.

Set the origin

Move the pivot to the centre or bottom of the model, or to a point you choose.

Frequently asked questions

Can I edit a 3D model without Blender?

Yes. VIZON covers everyday edits such as resizing, combining, cutting, splitting, decimating and retexturing in the browser.

Can I edit a STEP file the same way?

STEP files open in the CAD editor, where you can add features to them. To edit one as a mesh, convert it to a mesh first.

Will my edits change the original file?

Saving writes the edited model to your library. Keep a copy of the original if you need it unchanged.
