Point Mode

Point Mode is the most direct voxel tool mode.

It is useful when you want precise edits one point at a time. It is also a fast way to place quick lines by using Shift.

This tutorial builds directly on the idea that the active tool and the active mode work together to define the interaction.

Why This Matters

Point Mode is often the clearest way to understand voxel tool behavior because it is so direct.

It shows what happens when you work one point at a time instead of affecting a larger area.

Use it when accuracy matters more than coverage.

Point Mode is best for precise edits.

Use it when you want to work carefully and deliberately instead of affecting a broader area.

Because it works one point at a time, it is easy to predict and easy to control.

Point Mode is especially useful for:

It is a good choice when larger modes would affect too much of the model.

To place a quick line in Point Mode, hold Shift while using the tool.

This makes Point Mode useful not only for isolated points, but also for short direct line work.

Use this when you want a straight edit without switching to a broader mode.

Other modes often work in larger regions or broader shapes.

Point Mode stays focused and direct.

That makes it easier to predict when accuracy matters most.
