Composite paint strokes

(apostrophe)

(apostrophe)

Forces the Gigatexel Engine to stop dynamically buffering paint strokes and synchronize textures with all outstanding strokes. While processing, Mudbox appears unresponsive, and a progress bar displays at the bottom of the screen.

Use this hotkey when working with large texture datasets if the Gigatexel Engine buffering indicator interrupts your painting workflow. This lets you keep the Gigatexel Engine turned on, but also manually control when the compositing process occurs, if necessary.
