Edge Presets

Apply an Edge

1. 1

   Keep the paint layer selected

   Use the ordinary layer that already contains the useful local shades.

2. 2

   Switch to Edges

   Open the Presets panel and switch from Surfaces to Edges.

   Paint sidebar > Presets > Edges

3. 3

   Drag onto the target

   Drop a card onto the model. Hold Shift while dropping to target only the face under the pointer.

Eligible geometry

• Convex exposed edges can receive outer highlights, dark rims, or chips.
• Concave folds and exact contacts between separate parts can receive inner seams.
• Open and non-manifold mesh boundaries are skipped by default.
• Shared UV pixels can hold only one deterministic result.

Create your own Edge

1. 1

   Prepare the strip

   Paint or import a grayscale-and-alpha rectangle from 1x1 through 32x32 pixels.

2. 2

   Select the source

   Keep the rectangle inside one animation frame and include visible dark, light, or transparent pattern detail.

3. 3

   Describe the placement

   Choose exposed edges, inner seams, or both, then set the repeat direction and inward depth.
