Modify

The Modify tool applies structural transformations to a selection: creating translated copies, revolving a cross-section around an axis, or twisting a selection along its own axes. A live preview shows the result before confirming.

Controls

Input Action
RMB click Confirm (Translate Copies / Twist); place revolve center (Revolve)
LMB drag (Revolve) Drag the revolve center gizmo

Modes

Translate Copies

Creates one or more copies of the selection, each offset from the last by a fixed step.

Parameter Description
Offset type Relative — offset is a fraction of the selection size; Absolute — offset in blocks
Offset X/Y/Z Step distance per copy along each axis
Count Number of copies to produce (1–64)

Set offset type to Relative and offset X to 1.0 to stack copies edge-to-edge along the X axis.

Revolve

Rotates copies of the selection around a center point, distributing them evenly across an arc. Useful for round towers, pillars, or radially symmetric structures.

Parameter Description
Axis Axis of rotation: X, Y, or Z
Angle Total arc in degrees (1–360); 360 produces a full ring
Count Number of copies placed around the arc (1–64)
Add translation When enabled, each copy is also offset by a translation vector, producing a spiral
Translation X/Y/Z Per-copy translation step applied when Add translation is on

Placing the revolve center: RMB-click a block face in the world to plant the center point. Drag the translation gizmo that appears to reposition it. The preview updates live as you move it.

Twist

Rotates each block in the selection by an amount that increases from one face to the opposite face, producing a twisting or spiralling distortion.

Parameter Description
Twist angle X Total rotation around the X axis from bottom to top of the selection (−360–360°)
Twist angle Y Total rotation around the Y axis from left to right (−360–360°)
Twist angle Z Total rotation around the Z axis from front to back (−360–360°)
