Spline Polygon PropertyManager
You can control the shape of a 2D or a 3D spline by dragging or setting values for the control polygon nodes. Changing the locations of the control points (nodes), updates the values of the X and Y Coordinates (in 2D splines), and X, Y and Z Coordinates (in 3D splines) in the PropertyManager.
To open the Spline Polygon PropertyManager:
Select a control point and make it active.
You can drag the control points or adjust the values in the PropertyManager.
Control polygon | Selected point on control polygon active |
Parameters
X Coordinate | Adjust the values for position relative to the x axis. | |
Y Coordinate | Adjust the values for position relative to the y axis. | |
Z Coordinate | (3D splines). Adjust the values for position relative to the z axis. | |
Relax Spline | Re-parameterize (smooth) the shape after dragging. The Relax Spline command becomes available again by dragging a node on the control polygon. |
Select the spline again to display the Spline PropertyManager.
