This layer icon appeared as I was breaking out layers from AI to Moho....

Re: vector layer icon
It means the layer is only composed of triangles, so it's a triangulated layer that can be used as a smart warp mesh.

Wow. That was not supposed to happened.synthsin75 wrote:It means the layer is only composed of triangles, so it's a triangulated layer that can be used as a smart warp mesh.
How do you triangulate a layer?

Re: vector layer icon
You can triangulate a layer using Draw>Triangulate 2D Mesh, but if a layer just happens to only have filled triangles, Moho will show it as triangulated too. It's no different from a regular vector layer. Just means you could use it as a smart warp mesh. If the icon annoys you, you can just add a little filled square or circle somewhere way outside the camera view.Gnaws wrote:Wow.

Re: vector layer icon
Odd that only that layer came out looking like that. I must have accidentally hit the hot key for triangulate...assuming there is one?

Re: vector layer icon
No, it probably only has three-point filled shapes. That's all it takes.Gnaws wrote:Odd that only that layer came out looking like that. I must have accidentally hit the hot key for triangulate...assuming there is one?
There is no default hotkey for triangulate.

Ooooooh gotcha. That makes sense in regards to this particular vector shape.synthsin75 wrote:No, it probably only has three-point filled shapes.
