The Maya Curve Sculpt can be coupled with many other tools in the Groomer's Tool (Such as Curves To Cards/Twist/Curls/Braids)
​
* Before using, please make sure:
  • Maya's work unit is in 'centimeter'.  Preferences -> Settings: Working Units
There are two initial states:
1. Curves selected - When there are curves selected, all sculpting operations will only be applied to the selected curves
2. No curves selected - When there are no curves selected, only the curve that is 'closest' to the first cursor click will be sculpted.
