[@jammyIsLost]

any advice on removing rogue outlines in unexpected places? love your videos so much!

[@philippwohner-drawingandan5705]

I had a simliar problem, I think. At first, of course, you should try to lower the crease treshold in "Edge Types" in the line art modifier. But that changed nothing for me. Turned out that the problems were ngons (which are basically faces with more than 4 edges, usally you should avoid them, cause their often cause problems in shading and so on). So I triangulated the ngons by right clicking the face and select "tiangulate face". That worked for me! Maybe that wasnt your specific problem, but maybe it helps somebody else.

[@authorincognito]

dunno if you're still having this problem, but it may still be of use to you or others- on your mesh make a vertex group for anywhere you dont want lines. add a vertex group to your grease pencil in the data panel, then go to your lineart modifier and under vertex weight transfer type the name of your mesh's vertex group in the filter source, and the grease pencil vertex group in the target. then add an opacity modifier after and set the influence to use that vertex group

[@maklenard899]

hey anyone know how to make the dashed lines stop crawling around when animating the object?

[@levimagony]

I wanna know that too😄. But I think it's not possible since the outline is calculated from the camera angle, and on every frame you got a new outline with different dimensions, different dimension means > new calculation for the dash placement.

[@moemuxhagi]

This is a great tutorial ! My outline looks better already. But... I'm having a but of an issue 😅 In my model, I want to have some outlines at specific edges, which I've marked as sharp. However, I've put a bevel modifier on the model to smooth out all the edges, and that includes the sharp ones, and, now, my lineart panics and does both sides at once. I really want it to just do an outline on the edge itself, not around its bevel. How would I do that ? My lineart is also very messy, there are places everywhere where there are birs of unconnected lineart, and that is very infuriating, I don't know how to fix this without painstakingly move the vertecies by hand so the edge doesn't attract the lineart. I'm losing my mimd over this, I'm so sorry but no one on Reddit is answering my plea, I need your help 😭😭

[@levimagony]

To solve the outlines on beveled edges problem watch this video: kzbin.infobDpRuKby0f4 Or follow this text guide: delete the lineart modifier > duplicate the object > apply the bevel modifier > go to edit mode > select the edges where you want the outline > invert the selection (ctrl+i) > delete the vertices so you only keep the edges where you want the outline > go to object mode > right click and convert it to grease pencil > DONE (if you switch to draw mode you can erase stuff if needed)

[@levimagony]

Messy outlines possible fixes: 1. lineart modifier > edge types > change it to Silhouette (but you will lose details in some cases) 2. lineart modifier > Chaining > Enable all lines if doesn't work try to enable the other boxes and adjust the sliders and check the results
