Lower smoothing level ?

[XYZRGB]

Where is the option to change the default amount that a model gets smoothed when you select it and hit the ‘S’ key ?

Also, I’m new to polygons, so please forgive these stupid questions …but here is another one -
I notice that the models edge-loop structure is different when I do a smooth preview vs. when I actually smooth it using the ‘S’ key.( the edge loops actually seem smoother in most cases and circle around )

Is there a way to smooth the model and have it look like the preview version ?

Duhhh… huhh …:banghead:

There’s no such option. Hit S repeatedly.

Wrong. The effect is identical. But it might look different due to edge display settings.

Remember smoothing is the same as subdividing, you can only divide the mesh by half, not by part of half. Also in edit>plug-in preferences you can turn on doo-sabin sub-d which will sub-d closer to the original shape.
