BASICS · G08

click, brush, lasso, box.

Four ways to select an area, and when to use each.

Click: picks a whole surface in one go. Best for walls, floors and ceilings with clean edges.
Brush: paint over it. Best for soft or irregular areas, like a rug or planting.
Lasso: draw around it. Best for odd shapes the click doesn't catch cleanly.
Box: drag a rectangle. Best for a window, a door or a panel.

You can mix them: click the wall, then brush in the corner it missed.

Tip: if the selection looks almost empty, Hocus will tell you before anything is used.

Try it on your own model.

We'll fill in the settings from this guide. You change the rest.
