Synopsis

globalStitch [-caching boolean] [-lockSurface boolean] [-maxSeparation linear] [-modificationResistance float] [-nodeState int] [-sampling int] [-stitchCorners int] [-stitchEdges int] [-stitchPartialEdges boolean] [-stitchSmoothness int] surface surface...

globalStitch is undoable, queryable, and editable.

This command computes a globalStitch of NURBS surfaces. There should be at least one NURBS surface. The NURBS surface(s) should be untrimmed.

Return value

string[]Object name and node name

In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.
