Point_Surf : GeometryClass

Geometry Objects - Quick Navigation

Point_Surfs are NURBS surface objects defined by interpolated points.

All NURBS objects are created through the special NURBS descriptor classes (see Working with NURBS ) and the Point_Surf class is used typically in object class testing with the classOf() function.

Scene objects created as Point Surface objects in the 3ds Max user interface have the class Point_Surf .

Constructor:

NURBSNode <nurbs_set> ... 	 

See Creating New NURBS Objects for details.

Properties:

<Point_Surf>.thickness Float default: 1.0 -- animatable   

Rendered thickness of the surface.

<Point_Surf>.sides Integer default: 12 -- animatable 

Rendered sides of the surface.

<Point_Surf>.angle Float default: 0.0 -- animatable 

The rotational position of the cross-section in the renderer.

Other properties for Point Surfaces are accessed through a NURBSSet descriptor object. See Working with NURBS for more details.
