View source for Creating a brush entity

# [[Hammer Block Tool#Creating brushes|Create a new brush]] in Hammer.
# Select it in one of the 2D views.
# Use the shortcut key '''Ctrl+T''' (or, from the right-click menu, choose "Tie to Entity", or click the <code>toEntity</code> button in the bottom right panel.)
# Select the type of brush entity to create from the ''Class'' list.
# Click ''Apply''.

* The default entity in the selection list is [[func_detail]], which is solid for everything. For an index of documented brush entities see the [[:Category:Brush Entities]]

* A Brush entity may span '''multiple brushes''', so all currently selected brushes will be tied to one single entity. That entity's properties config will be applied to all of its brushes. To add more brushes to an existing brush entity, select the entity and the additional brushes then perform another Tie to entity command. You can also join two entities together in a similar way.

* Use '''Ctrl+W''' or the "toWorld" button to remove the selected brushes from the brush entity.
