Inheritance diagram of BevelPlus

class BevelPlus(*args, **kwargs)

class counterpart of mel function bevelPlus

The bevelPlus command creates a new bevel surface for the specified curves using a given style curve. The first curve should be the outsidecurve, and the (optional) rest of them should be inside of the first one. For predictable results, the curves should be planar and all in the same plane.

getCapSides(**kwargs)

How to cap the bevel. 1 - no caps2 - cap at start only3 - cap at end only4 - cap at start and endDefault:4

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getDepth(**kwargs)

The depth for the bevel. Default:0.5

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getExtrudeDepth(**kwargs)

The extrude distance (depth) for bevel. Default:1.0

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getInnerStyle(**kwargs)

Similar to outerStyle, this style is applied to all but the first (outer) curve specified.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getJoinSurfaces(**kwargs)

Attach bevelled surfaces into one surface for each input curve. Default:true

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getNormalsOutwards(**kwargs)

If enabled, the normals point outwards on the resulting NURBS or poly surface.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getNumberOfSides(**kwargs)

How to apply the bevel. 1 - no bevels2 - bevel at start only3 - bevel at end only4 - bevel at start and endDefault:4

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getOuterStyle(**kwargs)

Choose a style to use for the bevel of the first (outer) curve. There are 15 predefined styles (values 0 to 14 can be used to select them). For those experienced with MEL, you can, after the fact, specify a custom curve and use it for the style curve. See the documentation for styleCurve node to see what requirements a style curve must satisfy.

getPolyOutChordHeight(**kwargs)

Chord height is the absolute distance in object space which the center of a polygon edge can deviate from the actual center of the surface span. Only used if Method is Sampling and if polyOutseChordHeight is true. Default:0.1

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getPolyOutChordHeightRatio(**kwargs)

Chord height ratio is the ratio of the chord length of a surface span to the chord height. (This is a length to height ratio). 0 is a very loose fit. 1 is a very tight fit. This applies to the polygonal output type only. (See also description of chord height.) Used if Method is Sampling and polyOutUseChordHeightRatio is true. Default:0.1 Flag can have multiple arguments, passed either as a tuple or a list.

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getPolyOutCount(**kwargs)

The number of polygons to produce when the polygon is requested. Only used if Method is face count (0). Default:200

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getPolyOutCurveSamples(**kwargs)

Initial number of samples in the curve direction. Only used if Method is Sampling. Default:6

Derived from mel command maya.cmds.bevelPlus

getPolyOutCurveType(**kwargs)

Initial tessellation criteria along the curve. Only used if Method is Sampling. 2 - Complete Curve. This type places a specific number of sample points along the curve, equally spaced in parameter space.3 - Curve Span. This type places a specific number of sample points across each curve span, equally spaced in parameter space.Default:3
