NURBS Editing Dialogs
Topics in this section
- Convert Curve Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog is a general way to convert one kind of a curve to another or to adjust a curve's parameters. - Convert Curve On Surface Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog converts a curve to a point curve on surface or CV curve on surface. - Convert Surface Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog provides a general way to convert one kind of a surface to another or to adjust a surface's parameters. - CV Curve: Close Curve Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you create a closed CV curve when you click to create a CV in the same location as the curve's first CV. - Detach Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog appears when you use Detach to create a new top-level NURBS curve or surface sub-object. - Edit Curve On Surface Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you edit curves on surfaces as you edit regular curves in a viewport. The main part of the dialog is a two-dimensional view of the surface. The controls provide typical curve editing functions. - Edit Texture Surface Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you edit the texture surface for a surface sub-object. It is available when you have chosen User Defined as the sub-object's texture surface method. - Join Curves Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you choose the way to join two curves. - Join Surfaces Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you choose the way to join two surfaces. - Make Loft Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog converts a surface sub-object to a (dependent) U loft or UV loft surface. You can also change the dimension used to construct a U loft surface. - Make Point Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog converts a CV surface sub-object to a point surface sub-object. - Make Point Curve Dialog (NURBS)
The Make Fit button for a NURBS curve sub-object turns a CV curve into a point curve. For point curves, it lets you change the number of points. It displays this dialog. - Point Curve: Close Curve Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you create a closed point curve when you click to create a point in the same location as the curve's first point. - Rebuild CV Curve Dialog (NURBS)
The Rebuild button for CV curves displays this dialog. It lets you specify how to rebuild the curve. Rebuilding the curve can change its appearance. - Rebuild CV Surface Dialog (NURBS)
The Rebuild button for CV surfaces opens this dialog. It lets you specify how to rebuild the surface. Rebuilding the surface can change its appearance. - Rebuild Texture Surface Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog rebuilds the texture surface and lets you change the number of CV rows or columns. - Reparameterize Dialog (NURBS)
The Reparam. button for CV curves and surfaces displays this dialog. Reparameterizing a CV sub-object changes its parameter space to provide a better relation between control point locations and the shape of the sub-object. - Sub-Object Clone Options Dialog (NURBS)
When you Shift+Clone a surface or curve sub-object, the Clone Options dialog opens, giving you the option to make the clone a relational copy, an independent copy, or a transform object. - Select By Material ID Dialog (NURBS)
This dialog lets you select curve sub-objects by the material ID number assigned to them.
