pymel.core.modeling.planarSrf¶

planarSrf(*args, **kwargs)¶

This command computes a planar trimmed surface given planar boundary curves that form a closed region.

Flags:

Long Name / Short Name		Argument Types	Properties
caching / cch		bool
	Modifies the node caching mode. See the node documentation for more information. Note:For advanced users only.
constructionHistory / ch		bool
	Turn the construction history on or off.
degree / d		int
	The degree of the resulting surface: 1 - linear, 3 - cubic Default:3
frozen / fzn		bool
keepOutside / ko		bool
	If true, keep the regions outside the given curves. Default:false
name / n		unicode
	Sets the name of the newly-created node. If it contains namespace path, the new node will be created under the specified namespace; if the namespace does not exist, it will be created.
nodeState / nds		int
	Modifies the node state. See the node documentation for more information. Note:For advanced users only. Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.
object / o		bool
	Create the result, or just the dependency node.
polygon / po		int
	The value of this argument controls the type of the object created by this operation 0: nurbs surface1: polygon (use nurbsToPolygonsPref to set the parameters for the conversion)2: subdivision surface (use nurbsToSubdivPref to set the parameters for the conversion)3: Bezier surface4: subdivision surface solid (use nurbsToSubdivPref to set the parameters for the conversion)
range / rn		bool
	Force a curve range on complete input curve. Advanced flags
tolerance / tol		float
	The distance tolerance for the cvs of the curves to be in the same plane. Default:0.01 Common flags

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.planarSrf

Example:

import pymel.core as pm

# create linear planar trimmed surface given boundary curve(s)
pm.planarSrf( d=1 )

# use boundary curve(s) to create a hole by
# keeping the outside trimmed regions
pm.planarSrf( ko=True)
