Do you have the possibility to post the mesh here? Difficult to tell the problem you have without seeing it!

You may either rotate the plane cut by dragging on the orientation arcs (green one seen on your picture), or flip direction of cut by clicking on the thick blue arrow.

Another thing that could be useful in measurements would be to display x, y, z distances too.

Difficult to answer without seeing your object, but the extrude tool can be used to give thickness to a sheet of facets. Eg. See this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-YlVEe6F37w

Select Deformations -> Warp tool, then right-click where you want to add a control point (red dot). Move it with left button drag.

Excellent video, very informative!
Just to make sure, the small "speckles" you have to eliminate in the end were small disconnected elements hidden in the shoe?

Have you seen this video? http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=_dWcfZNsE94 . That's where I understood how pinning works... (double click to add a pin).

Wow indeed! I have not yet tested and integrated all the new tools (eg. pinning usage remains a bit mysterious to me), but many new things are very interesting (the most promising for my needs is the attract tool)!
A demonstration video will be highly appreciated

Questions & Troubleshooting / Re: How do you make your own Parts?

I suggest that you have a look at these video tutorials. Some are a bit outdated because they were created with older MM versions, but the basic principles are still there. See also http://www.meshmixer.com/help/index.html

Questions & Troubleshooting / Re: Problem with corrupted icons on tool bar

« on: August 03, 2012, 01:39:14 AM »

Yes, it's possible to do a lot of work without the side icon bar (it has 3 functions, drag&drop components, rendering style and stamp tool shape). I had the same problem as you on one machine equipped with basic Intel integrated graphics. Solved by adding a cheap GeForce board...

Oh.. and if you are working on sculpting tools,
how about tryng to make a better crease brush?(Again another thing that Sculptris got right..)

I join HolyEnigma here... For a while I used both MM and Sulptris because the feeling of crease tool of the latter was much better. I'm now more or less used to MM crease, but clearly it could be improved.
