Settings

Open Settings with the gear at the top right.

  • Camera controls: zoom, pan, orbit and fly speeds.
  • Workspace defaults: ground grid, solid ground, and showing the R6 reference at startup.
  • Painting: Snap to shapes, Shape hold time, and Classic brush (the brush edges from version 1.3.0).
  • Export for Roblox: a solid statue root, the pet’s height in studs (0 is off), keeping the Roblox Studio plugin installed, and saving a preset with every export.
  • Files & recovery: remembering your export folder, autosave every few minutes, and an Open folder button for the autosaved workspaces. Autosave is what puts Recover last session… in the File menu.
  • Storage: how much is cached on your computer, and Clear cache.
  • Appearance & layout: the selection outline, and resetting the panel layout.
  • Interface colours: the app’s colour theme.
  • About & legal: the app version, the Terms of Service, the Privacy Policy and the third-party notices.
Settings: camera controls, workspace defaults, painting and the start of Export for Roblox.
