Intersect Surfaces Property Editor

 
 
 

Creates a curve based on the intersection of two surfaces.

To apply: Select one surface then choose Create Curve Intersect Surfaces from the Model toolbar and pick the second surface. For best results, first make sure that the surfaces have the same parameterization.

To redisplay: Select the generated curve, click the Selection button on the Select panel, then click the Intersect Surfaces icon.

Inputs

Hide/Unhide

Hides all the inputs for the generated object to simplify the display of your scene in the 3D views, or unhides the inputs when you need to modify them.

Delete

Freezes the generator and deletes the inputs. This simplifies the scene once you are satisfied that you won't need to modify the inputs again.

Intersection Tolerance

The maximum allowable error for calculating the intersection of the surfaces. Low values may result in long computations and heavy geometry with many control points.

Position Tolerance

The maximum allowable error for calculating the positions of the curve's control points. Low values may result in long computations and heavy geometry with many control points.

Angular Tolerance

The maximum allowable error for calculating the tangent of the curve. Low values may result in long computations and heavy geometry with many control points.
