smooth in sculpt working strangely

Question Sculpting

The smooth brush suddenly worked strangely. It no longer smoothed the surface but left strange shapes as depicted. The problem may occurred after I applied the Decimate modifier. The brush worked well in other files.

I was using Dyntopo-subdivide edges, pixel size set to 5.

Could anyone help to fix the problem?

    Hi llotuswarlock ,

    You haven't Applied the Decimate Modifier (just added it) and that doesn't work with Dyntopo (see the warning in the Modifier).

    Apply the Modifier in Object Mode and then go back to Sculpting. Smoothing should work as expected again. If not, let us know.

    Solution

    And if the problem doesn't go away after that, there was someone having the same issue a little while ago and it turned out one of the axis was locked. Be sure all axis are unlocked when sculpting.
