CLO Button Tool Hack: Create Digital Jewelry with Multiple Materials

In this tutorial, I show how to use the Button Tool in CLO to create digital jewelry with multiple materials. You’ll learn how a single button can function as both gemstone and metal setting by using Button and Thread assignments, allowing realistic material separation for digital jewelry, bracelets, and accessories. The gemstone and setting were sculpted in Nomad on iPad, but this workflow works with any sculpting software, such as Blender. I also demonstrate how to attach buttons to a fabric base to keep the bracelet pose- and simulation-ready inside CLO.
