Tip / Trick

To turn a rectangular brush into a triangular shape you can select "brush clipping". A cursor with a cube and a line through it will come up, you now select the two opposite corners of your square brush.

To cut one side scroll down to the "clip selected brushes" icon, the brush will clip the side that the red line is pointing out towards. If you wish to clip the other side you can select the "flip clipping normal" icon before selecting to clip.

This tool comes in very useful, in particular when you wish to create ramps and other sloped items.
