Viewing patches switches the view to a flat 2D mode in which some of the controls don't work. When making cuts and flattening a surface, you can then save out the resulting section of surface as a patch. == Loading Patches == Use the '''File->Patch->Load Patch...''' item to load a patch file. == Saving Patches == Use the '''File->Patch->Save Patch''' command to overwrite the original file, or '''File->Patch->Save Patch As...''' to save a new patch file in a new location.
