This modifierwasintroduced in Autodesk VIZ 2005 as RendSpline : Modifier and is available in 3ds Max 7 and higher. It can be used to procedurally turn an incomingspline shapefrom the modifier stackinto a renderable mesh. It is also used internally when linking DWG files.

Constructor

Renderable_Spline ... RendSpline ...

Properties

<Renderable_Spline>.Renderable BooleanClass default: true -- boolean

Toggle the "Enable In Renderer" checkbox on and off. When set to true, a mesh will be generated based on the underlying spline. When false, no mesh will be generated

<Renderable_Spline>.displayRenderSettings BooleanClass default: true -- boolean

When on, displaysthe mesh generated by the render settings.

<Renderable_Spline>.useViewportSettings BooleanClass default: false -- boolean

Whenset to true, displays the meshdefinedby the Viewport settingsif .displayRenderSettings is set to true.

<Renderable_Spline>.mapcoords BooleanClass default: false -- boolean

When set to true, mapping coordinates will be generated procedurally.The U coordinate wraps once around the thickness of the spline; the V coordinate is mapped once along the length of the spline.

When set to false, no mapping coordinates will be generated.
