<p>GZDoom Builder is a Doom Builder 2 fork, which aims to incorporate as many GZDoom features as possible. Currently it's the only map editor for Doom and games based on Doom engine, which supports 3d-models, dynamic lights and colored fog.

This is the Reference Manual for GZDoom Builder. You can use this manual to look up how the specific GZDoom Builder features work and what the specific modes and actions do. This manual is not a beginners tutorial that teaches you how to make maps.

- all selected floors/ceilings are aligned to that linedef if their texture matches one of the hilighted floor/ceiling.<br />
- the vertical and horizontal texture scale is copied from the highlighted floor/ceiling to the selected floors/ceilings.</p>

<h2>Slopes</h2>
<p>&quot;<strong>Auto Align Textures</strong>&quot; actions work on slopes. Textures are aligned to the line with &quot;Plane align (slope)&quot; action (181).<br />

<p>Visual vertices allow you to edit vertical vertex offsets in Visual mode.<br/>
You can select and edit them just like Things (except you can not move them horizontally).<br/>
You can use &quot;<strong>Delete</strong>&quot; action (usually bound to Delete key) to clear z-offsets of selected vertices.<br/>
You can toggle Visual vertices display using <a href="../general/rendering_toolbar.html">Rendering toolbar</a> or &quot;<a href="../../actions.html#visualverts"><strong>Toggle Visual Vertices</strong></a>&quot; action.<br/>
Visual vertices with height offset (e.g. with some values in &quot;zceiling&quot; or &quot;zfloor&quot; UDMF fields) are colored using &quot;Info Line&quot; color. Visual vertices without offsets are colored using &quot;Vertex&quot; color. You can change these colors in Preferences -&gt; Appearance.</p>
