synopsis.
attachCurve is undoable, queryable, and editable.
This attach command is used to attach curves. Once the curves are
attached, there will be multiple knots at the joined point(s).
These can be kept or removed if the user wishes. If there are two
curves, the end of the first curve is attached to the start of the
second curve. If there are more than two curves, closest endpoints
are joined. Note: if the command is done with Keep Original off,
the first curve is replaced by the attached curve. All other curves
will remain, the command does not delete them.

Argument types |
Properties |
reverse1(rv1) |
boolean |
|
|
If true, reverse the first input curve before doing attach.
Otherwise, do nothing to the first input curve before attaching.
NOTE: setting this attribute to random values will cause
unpredictable results and is not supported.
Default: false |
|
reverse2(rv2) |
boolean |
|
|
If true, reverse the second input curve before doing attach.
Otherwise, do nothing to the second input curve before attaching.
NOTE: setting this attribute to random values will cause
unpredictable results and is not supported.
Default: false |
|
method(m) |
int |
|
|
Attach method (connect-0, blend-1)
Default: 0 |
|
keepMultipleKnots(kmk) |
boolean |
|
|
If true, keep multiple knots at the join parameter. Otherwise
remove them.
Default: true |
|
blendBias(bb) |
float |
|
|
Skew the result toward the first or the second curve depending
on the blend factory being smaller or larger than 0.5.
Default: 0.5 |
|
blendKnotInsertion(bki) |
boolean |
|
|
If set to true, insert a knot in one of the original curves
(relative position given by the parameter attribute below) in order
to produce a slightly different effect.
Default: false |
|
parameter(p) |
float |
|
|
The parameter value for the positioning of the newly inserted
knot.
Default: 0.1 |
|
Advanced flags |
caching(cch) |
boolean |
|
|
Modifies the node caching mode. See the node documentation for
more information.
Note: For advanced users only. |
|
nodeState(nds) |
int |
|
|
Modifies the node state. See the node documentation for more
information.
Note: For advanced users only. |
|
Common flags |
name(n) |
string |
|
|

|
constructionHistory(ch) |
boolean |
|
|

|
object(o) |
boolean |
|
|
Create the result, or just the dependency node |
|
replaceOriginal(rpo) |
boolean |
|
|
Create "in place" (i.e., replace) |
|
