You're probably struggling to get your auto-smooth function back.
It's not in the Object Data, It's not when you right mouse click.
Despair!
However, this tutorial shows you how to shade smooth and get auto-smooth in Blender 4.1

Great video, I am a beginner taking the step to become intermediate, and it was indeed less complicated. It's a matter of getting used to. Thanks

I'm not struggling: I switched back to 4.0.2. PROBLEM SOLVED.

@@theblenderender I do use AutoSmooth intensively. Do not need the "modifier version" nor Geo Nodes at all (which is NOT MODELING AT ALL).
YOU LEGEND!!

Well thank you, I do believe I got a couple of better ones on this channel so check it out if you've got time💪🏻🦁
Is it right to assume that this was also done so Auto-Smooth works with Geometry Nodes?

Yes you are correct. Blender wants to do everything nodes
Thanks for this video, it helped a lot

You're welcome🙌🏻
Is there another source to fix this? I think I purged all the content from KZread to fix the problem. All the videos are the same and correct the same errors which works for me but none of them mention the problem encountered in face and body sculpting which makes the latest version unusable. What I'm trying to do is to obtain 100% smoothness like before in one click.

You could try adding it in geometry nodes, not sure if this will work though
if i right click it just deselects the object?

It depends on what you selected as default in blender when you downloaded it. Some people choose right mouse to select objects with
a feature would this have been when the normal modifier would be shifted automatically to the bottom of the layer stack .....

True that would at least be a bit better
The most annoying part is that you have to have shade smooth enabled through the context menu for it to work. Could be confusing as to why it's not working when using the modifier. Also could you explain what set sharpness by angle does vs mark sharp?
This is pain in the ass. I feel it's broken now. For example, I'm trying to make flat object which was shaded by angle and it still smooth. Have no idea why

Right click and shade it flat again. Maybe the shade smooth is still turned on. And indeed, it is a bit of hassle

As an ex-Maya and 3ds Max user, I can say that it's a terrible decision. Blender was so much better at this than these two. Why did they do this? I switched to Blender because it was better. Why are they breaking it?

True it's not the best workflow right now. If I may ask, are there any tools or things you miss from those other programs?

@@theblenderender First of all, high performance with heavy meshes. In 3ds Max there are also cool curves, I'd say the best. Modifiers are way more flexible and there are plenty of them. Maya is better for UVs. UVs in Blender are a disaster.
Blender 3.6 LTS gang 👌💪
I guess the blender product owner had this feature change high on the backlog 😅

They're trying to make Blender industry standard. Guess some things just need to be sacrificed for Hollywoods sake ;p
