Anyone else got this kind of problem; i made room and now i wanted to create small brush in side it , but when i build it inside room the room disappears and only brush comes there.
And another problem is when i have used editor for a while the framerate goes really low and its impossible to work(read. move objects) smoothly.

I used to have that problem constantly when I used the Brush Rescale tool to resize my brushes. It may be that your additive brush is overlapping your subtractive brush, if only a little bit. The Rescale tool pulls the brush off the grid a lot of times. Use the Vertex Editing tool to resize your brushes and make sure your brushes don't overlap and the problem will probably go away.

This sounds like a memory problem, maybe. How much memory do you have? Do you have a lot of other programs running at the same time?

One thing to be sure of when you're resizing your brushes is not to invert the brush, meaning don't drag is so thin that it starts expanding inverted in the other direction - if that makes any sense.

Hey, that's probably what I was doing before! I didn't even think of that.

You should also use the Find Offgrid Brushes tool. (I might not have the name quite right as I'm going by memory. :confused: ) It's under the Tools menu. I was having trouble with disappearing brushes until I ran that. Fixed me right up! :thumb:
