    Hi Jeff,

    I am having difficulty understanding your (description of the) problem. Can you post some screenshots, or even better a screengrab of what you are trying to do exactly? Also, what Blender Version are you using?

    Don't just Move that Face down. First E(xtrude) and then move that down.

    Hey Johnathan 33DTitties ,

    You'd have to give a bit more information than that.

    If you can upload screenshots it would be great but even better if you can post a screen grab video to see the problem in action.

    Good point martin and omar, here's a video link to what happens when I try to use the knife tool. At first It wasnt even snapping, once i figured that out it refuses to make cuts/lines where I want but will make them at other places if i try. Im going to try to make cuts and move them into position but if you have any ideas why this is happening advice would be much appreciated.

    Also, how do you reply @ someone on this site? I'm unfamiliar with this comment system. 

  • Omar Domenech replied

    Looks glitchy for sure. Maybe you have that normal flipped? You can upload the file and post the link for us to download and try things around, try and solve a good mystery.

    HI Johnathan 33DTitties ,

    Maybe you just need practicing with the Knife Tool: it looks like you are sometimes using LMB and sometimes RMB. This could also be a Hardware Problem (with your Mouse) or even a Driver that needs updating.

    After pressing K, you might want to take your time and look at all the Options you have at the bottom of the 3D Viewport and play with the different shortcuts there and see what happens. I remember, that in the beginning, I was always pressing the wrong Keys/Mouse Button, when trying to use the Knife Tool...

    If you keep having problems, you can upload your .blend, like Omar suggested and we'll have a look.

    Every time I clicked in that video I was using the left mouse button. Here's the project file, I was able to get around it and move on with the tutorial but I still don't know what's up with it.  https://drive.google.com/file/d/1-QizsU9eqR69X94qwYXuXT0RaGESEk8c/view?usp=sharing

    Ah, same issue as with your other question: overlapping Faces:

    Blender can be a doozie, so much stuff to go wrong. You develop a mental check list with time to look for the things that may be causing trouble. Again, the helpful addon is one that looks for mesh errors, 3D Print Toolbox.
