To use Bezier tool inside modeler
Create > Bezier
Step 1
If you would like to use Bezier tool inside the modeler, you must choose the Bezier option from the Create menu. Bezier allows you to create standard spline curves using tangent controls.
Step 2
Once you drop the Bezier tool, a normal Modeler curve is created. As such, you cannot re-edit the curve using the Bezier tool.
Step 3
On the numeric panel, you can create a closed curve and delete the last tangent point.
To use sketch inside modeler
Modeler > Sketch
Step 1
If you would like to use sketch inside modeler, first you need to go to Modeler tool bar and choose the Sketch option. The function of sketch is to allow user to draw points in freehand mode and they are two-dimensional modeling tools, in any viewports.
Step 2
Normally this tool is used to create logos or curve objects.
To load type fonts inside modeler
Modeler > Option > Edit font list
Step 1
If you wish to load fonts inside modeler, first you need to go to the Modeler menu and then choose Option. After that, select the Edit font list.
Step 2
Form the inside of the panel choose Add true type button to add in the font inside the modeler:
Step 3
Later you need to use the Font pop-up menu to select the font for your object.
Clicking the Load Type-1 button will bring up a file menu where you can load a PostScript font. If you have PostScript fonts, the files often have a .PFB filename extension.
Clicking the Add True-Type button will bring up a font selection menu, which you can use to select a font. (Note: the point size is irrelevant.)
Click Clear Entry to remove the selected font from the font list.
Clear List will purge the entire list. Load List brings up a file requester where to you can load a previously saved font list file. This can be the LWM.CFG file.
Save List brings up a file requester for saving the current font list to a file. Note that the font list is automatically saved when you exit Modeler, so it is not necessary for you to save the list. At the same time, you could use this option to create custom file lists for special purposes.
To use type text inside modeler
Create > Type Text or press Shift (W)
Step 1
If you would like to use the type text, you have to choose the Type Text option from the Create menu or just press Shift (W). In modeler, you could type words like many other vector graphic software and then convert it to the 3D Modeling. This is sometime very important especially in creating the 3D logo and curve objects.
Step 2
You can click on the text tools and type in the text inside the view of modeler. But before you can use the text tool, you must load the fonts first than add true type font inside the LightWave modeler.
