# Brush Authoring Brushes are persisted blockout geometry stored as `ActorKind::Brush + BrushDesc`. ## MVP Scope - `BrushDesc::default()` creates an additive cube brush. - Each face stores a stable ID, plane, vertices, optional material/texture refs, UV offset/scale/rotation, and smoothing group. - Hydration builds generated mesh children from active brush components and strips those children before scene save. - Brush actors validate separately from primitives and imported/static mesh actors. - The Actor Inspector Add Component shelf can add a **Brush** component. The Brush card exposes kind, face count, shadow flags, and cube reset. - Draw Brush mode (`B`, toolbar pencil, or command `brush.draw`) creates additive prism brushes from snapped floor points. LMB places points, Backspace removes the last point, Enter commits through undo history, and Esc/right-click cancels without scene mutation. ## Current Limits - Only convex authored faces are supported by the mesh builder. - Subtractive brushes are stored as markers but are not evaluated as CSG. - Face, edge, vertex, clipping, and primitive brush creation tools are future roadmap work.
