curveEditorCtx [-direction int] [-relativeTangentSize float]
[-title string]
curveEditorCtx is undoable, queryable, and editable.
The curveEditorCtx command creates a new NURBS editor context,
which is used to edit a NURBS curve or surface.

(name of the new context) |
In query mode, return type is based on queried flag.

-title(-t) |
string |
  |
|
|
-direction(-dir) |
int |
|
|
Query the current direction of the tangent control. Always zero
for the curve case. In the surface case, its 0 for the normal
direction, 1 for U direction and 2 for V direction. |
|
-relativeTangentSize(-rts) |
float |
 |
|
Relative size of the tangent manipulator handle. Helps to
adjust as the surface parameterization controls the size of the
tangent, even if the shape of the surface remains the same. The
default is 4. |
