Crop tool

💻 Shortcut: E

🥽 Quick swap: None

The Crop tool is useful for removing unwanted clay from a layer. When you use the Crop tool, all clay in a layer that doesn't intersect with the brush will be removed. This can be useful for cleaning up layers.

Split Tool Parameters

Brush Shape

Select the base shape for the brush

Different brush shapes have different parameters available. For example, you can adjust the width, height, and depth of a cube, or you can adjust the radius and thickness of a torus. A full list of brush shape parameters is available here.

Size

Modify the size of the brush

Increase or decrease the size of the brush. Very large brush sizes may cause a delay between adding clay and the clay appearing.
