![]() Maps the start and end factor to the number of subdivisions of a spline (U resolution). Of the distance from the end of the curve (again, shortening the curve).Īllows to control the relation between the Factor Start, End (number between 0 and 1)Īnd the rendered start and end point of the spline’s geometry. Of the distance from the start of the curve (in effect shortening the curve).Īn End value of 0.75 will start the geometry at 25% This allows to make a curve which is not fully covered with geometry.Ī Start value to 0.5 will start the geometry at 50% These options determine where to start/end the geometry of the curve. So it is recommended to use at least as many segments as there are control points. To give each edge the same number of samples, they will just be added to the most curved edges. The samples are added to edges with sharp control points on either side. The Sample Straight Edges option toggles whether They will be divided evenly between the edges. Samples will first be added to each control point, then if there are enough samples, The Support Loops and Steps presets are built dynamically depending on The Profile curve widget stays active when miters are enabledīecause it still controls the shape of the miter profiles. You can check how the projected Object looks like by switching its shape to 2D. It will be projected to its local XY plane before the extrusion. Here you can specify a curve object (opened or closed) which will be extruded along the curve. Ī curve with different resolutions applied (Resolution of 12). Ī curve with different resolutions applied (Resolution of 1). Ī curve with different Bevel depths applied (Depth of 0.25). Bevel Round DepthĪ curve with different Bevel depths applied (Depth of 0.05). The Map Taper option will apply the taper to the beveled part of the curve (not the whole curve). įor curves using a Taper Object and with modifications to the Start/End Bevel Factor Examples of a curve with a radius of zero on one end and a radius of one on the other end. The effective radius is computed by adding the taper radius to the curve radius. The effective radius is computed by multiplying the taper radius with the curve radius. The curve radius is ignored and the effective radius is equal to the taper radius. How the effective curve radius is computed from the Taper Object. ![]() Taper Modeįor curves using a Taper Object, this option defines Will instantly change the shape of the original object. (the place where the endpoint of the curve connects to the beginning) is a smooth transition.Įditing the handles and control points of the Taper Object Taper curve at both ends to be the same, so that the cyclic point You want the relative height of the Taper Object Not just the length of the object, and varies the extrusion depth. ![]() With closed curves, the taper curve in Taper Object acts along the whole curve (perimeter of the object), Subdividing segments causes those points to use a larger fraction of the overall taper shape. Therefor unevenly spaced control points may likelier to stretch the shape of the taper. The Taper Object is distributed by control points. You may need to increase the curve resolution to see more detail of the taper. negative local Y on the taper curve) is possible as well. The scaling starts at the first control point on the leftĪnd moves along the curve to the last control point on the right. Only the first curve in a Taper Object is evaluated, even if you have several separated segments. The taper is applied independently to all curves of the extruded object. In order for this to work the Taper Object can only be another open curve. The taper curve is evaluated along the local X axis, using the local Y axis for width control. You can also alter the proportions of the Taper throughout the tapered objectīy moving/scaling/rotating the control points of the Taper Object. Tapering a curve causes it to get thinner towards one end. With a scale is the sum of both directions, perpendicular to the curve’s normals. Turns a one-dimensional curve into a two-dimensional curve by giving it height. Will extrude the curve along both the positive and negative local Z axes. Moves the extrusion parallel to the curve normals.īézier Circle -1 offset, 0.5 extrusion, 0.25 Bevel Depth, 10 Bevel resolution.
