The SelSubDEdges command selects different types of edges on selected SubDs.

Steps

  1. Select SubD objects, press Enter.

    The command reports the numbers of different edge types.

  2. Sets what types of edges to be selected.

    The command-line only shows the edge types that the selected SubDs have.

Command-line options

Smooth (Yes/No)

Specifies whether smooth edges will be selected.

Weighted (Yes/No)

Specifies whether soft crease edges will be selected.

The SubDCrease command adds soft crease edges to SubDs.

Crease (Yes/No)

Specifies whether hard crease edges will be selected.

The Crease command adds hard crease edges to SubDs.

Boundary (Yes/No)

Specifies whether naked edges will be selected.

The MakeSubDFriendly command makes any curves SubD compatible.

  • A SubD friendly curve is a degree 3 uniform curve.

  • The second control points on both ends are constrained and locked. These points display with the locked object color.

  • The first and last three control points are always collinear to maintain zero curvature at both ends.

  • Moving or deleting Control Points or Edit Points will not destroy the SubD friendly characteristic.

  • SubD creation commands (SubDLoft, SubDSweep1, SubDSweep2...) create a better SubD object from SubD friendly curves.
