Blender F.A.Q (Last Updated: 2024 Nov 03 9:26 pm)
It's tricky - no question about it. When I use it, I tend to click the vert, getting it ready to translate, and with it active (held down with the index finger), with the other hand scroll the wheel up or down, thus increasing or decreasing area of influence. It looks and feels awkward, but it works.

You have to select a transform before scrolling the mouse wheel when using proportional edit mode . For example if you want to move a vert/edge/face using proportional editing press G then use the scroll wheel, to rotate press R and then the scroll wheel and S then the scroll wheel to scale.

I'm an idiot. I totally forgot about the key approach to do transformation - that is so much easier, Keppel... thank you! I'd be clicking and holding and trying to scroll ... and wondering why this was so hard. I suppose if you work in the default right-mouse click, you can more easily do it that way, but this way is infinitely easier!

Thanks, all. The G seems to work. I don't think the manual said anything about using G...
If you want to move vertices you have to [G]rab them. Other possibilities are [R]otating them or [S]caling them.
Blender doesn't have the same red to green type of colour gradient indictating range of influence like 3dsMax does for instance. What you can do with Blender though is refine your proportional edit immediately after the function is executed. For example if you perform a proportional edit, as soon as you release your finger from the mouse you will see on the bottom left of your screen a range of variables appear (under the toolshelf panel) . Here you can change influences such as falloff amount and falloff profile by either using the slider or typing in a numerical amount. Also if you press F6 the same range of variables will appear as a floating window.

Having trouble sizing the area of affect. The manual says to use the scroll wheel or the up/down keys. This is still having the zoom effect. I think it's turned on properly. Attached a shot of the edit menu. (??) Or tried...
