Description

Rebuild the curve by repositioning its control-vertices (CVs) to achieve an optimized layout while preserving the original shape as closely as possible.

Basic Usage

  1. Select the curve(s) you want to rebuild.
  2. Open the Command Palette, type Rebuild, and execute the command.
  3. Set the options in the Command Dialog.
  • Command Dialog
    • Method:
      • Refit: Rebuild within tolerances.
        • Tolerance: Specify the Tolerances.
        • Keep corners: When enabled, the corners of the Curve are not changed.
      • Points: Rebuild within the specified number of CVs.
        • Points: Specify the number of CVs.
      • Explicit Control: Rebuild within the specified number of degree and spans.
        • Degree & Spans: Specify the value of degree and number of spans.
        • Weight: Based on the specified Degree and Spans settings, you can adjust the Weight to control the position of CVs. A lower value loosens the curve's shape, improving quality for surface workflows. A higher value keeps the curve closer to its original shape, preserving accuracy and structure. (Default: 0.5)
  1. Confirm with OK in the Command Dialog or right-click.
