Editing Curves

Table of contents

No headers

	CurvesKeypoint Curve ToolboxDrag Keypoints [Rhino: no equivalent] Allows you to move keypoints on keypoint curves.
	Curve EditModifyTransform Curve [Rhino: no equivalent] Provides a direct way of positioning a curve so that it intersects two rail curves by conserving its original shape.
	Curve EditModifyStretch [Rhino: no equivalent] Lets you stretch or reshape a curve by moving handles attached to the curve.
	Curve EditModifyAdd Points [Rhino: no equivalent] Lets you add control points to the end of an existing curve, as if you were still drawing it using the new curve tools.
	Curve EditRebuild Curve [Rhino: Rebuild, RebuildCrvNonUniform, MakeUniform, SimplifyCrv, Fair, Smooth, FitCrv and ChangeDegree] Recreates a curve with the same shape but different mathematical properties.
	Curve EditProject Tangent [Rhino: Match] Allows for the modification of a curve or surface edge to achieve tangency or curvature continuity with a surface, or tangency with a curve intersection. [The Align tool provides similar functionality.]
	Curve EditCurve Section [Rhino: Delete Subcurve] Curve Section – Cuts, trims, or creates new geometry along a number of curves based on a chosen criterion.
	Object EditAttachAttach [Rhino: Match Curve] Joins curves by connecting their endpoints, joins surfaces by connecting the edges, or closes a surface by connecting its opposite edges. Note Attaching curves or surfaces with coincident edges can lead to nodes or tension at the intersection, and should be used with care.
	Object EditAttachDetach [Rhino: Subcurve] Separates a curve or surface into two or more objects at any point.
	Object EditInsert [Rhino: no equivalent] Adds an edit point to a curve, or an edit point isoparametric curve to a surface.
	Object EditExtend [Rhino: Extend Curve] Extends a curve or surface beyond its current endpoint or edge by adding new geometry. A precise value can be entered at the prompt line.
	Object EditOffset [Rhino: Offset Curve] Creates a new object offset a specific distance from an original.
	Object EditAlignAlign [Rhino: Match Curve] Aligns the endpoints/edges of curves and/or surfaces, or interior isoparametric curves.
	LocatorsCurve Curvature [Rhino: Curvature Graph] Adds a locator that shows the curvature or radius comb of a curve.
