Gabor Kiss in Modeling


Usage

Smart Align works in Edit Mode and is designed for fast, predictable source-to-target alignment between vertices, edges, faces, and connected geometry islands.

Fast Align (Quick Workflow)

1. Select a vertex, edge, or face on the island you want to move
2. Select the matching element on the target island
    vertex to vertex
    edge to edge
    face to face
3. Press Alt + A
4. Choose Fast Align
5. Optional: use Fine Tune, then press Done

The entire connected island of the reference moves and aligns to the target element.

Align (Step-by-step Mode)

1. In Edit Mode, select the geometry you want to move
2. Choose a reference element (vertex, edge, or face) from that selection
3. Choose the target element
4. Optional: use Fine Tune, then press Done

Fine Tune

Fine Tune is available after alignment for edge-edge and face-face workflows.
It includes:
- Interactive rotation with snapping
- Local U / V / Gap offsets for post-align movement
- Viewport gizmos for both movement and rotation
- Numeric fields that stay in sync with the gizmos
- F to flip alignment direction
- Hover face + Space to move the view perpendicular to that face for easier inspection
