modeling drawing
Aligns the forward and backward tangents of the specified bezier
knots according to the mode indicated.
A bezier knot is a knot whose multiplicity equals the curve degree
(for example: multiplicity=3 in a cubic curve).
Note: If the given knots are not bezier the command will prompt the
user for a confirmation to convert them to bezier.
oReturn = AlignBezierKnotsTangents( [SubComp], [ImmediateMode], [Mode] ); |
An XSICollection of
Operators.
Note: If the ImmediateMode parameter is set to
siImmediateOperation, no operators are returned.
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| SubComp | String | Either knots or a cluster of knots as Components.
Default Value: Current selection |
| ImmediateMode | siOperationMode | Specifies whether or not the operator should be immediately
frozen.
Default Value: siPersistentOperation |
| Mode | siCurveKnotTangentAlignment | Specifies how to align the tangents
Default Value: siCurveKnotAlignFwdAndBwdTangentsTogether |
