  1. Selecting Objects in Paint 3D


    This is probably a silly question but I'm just getting started with Paint 3D and keep running into the same problem. I laid out several copies of rectangles. After selecting another tool I wanted to go back and move the rectangles. However, the select tool does not select them. For the life of me I can't figure out how to move an object after the menu and dialogue box for it is closed. Can anyone help me please?

    :)

    Problem selecting objects in W10 Paint 3D

    Hi any big users of Paint 3D out there? I've got this recurring problem where I an trying to point at a drawing object I've made with my cursor to select it - and it does not matter how many times I try or where I click on the object - its almost as if Paint 3D can't see that there is an object there. I get round it by grouping objects - spinning the whole pic around and then ungrouping and pointing at the object again to select. Sometimes that works , sometimes not. Its a right pain in the rear end! I've also tried looping around the object and again sometimes it picks it up sometimes not. I've also tried working in 3D mode - it works a bit better - but again not 100% and I find that view a bit awkward. Is there some surefire way of making sure when I'm point at something - Paint 3D actually selects it? In PowerPoint this is easy - because if you get a heavily layered pic with a lot of objects - you can use the Select Pane to cycle through the objects until you get to the one you want- but I don't think there is a similar function in Paint 3D? Thanks

    Licensing of Microsoft's 3D Objects on Paint 3D

    I am looking for licensing of 3D objects in the extended library on Paint 3D. I would like to share some designs on thingiverse based on objects I found in that library. However, I don't want to do so if it violates your licensing.
