The ExtractControlPolygon command fits a polyline through the control points of a curve or a polygon mesh through the control points of a surface.
Steps
Select curves or surfaces.
This creates polylines and/or meshes that have vertices at the original objects' control points.
Command-line options
OutputLayer
Specifies the layer for the results of the command.
Current
Places the results on the current layer.
Input
Places the results on the same layer as the input curve.
TargetObject
Places the results on the same layer as the target surface.
Note
● | The ExtractControlPolygon command is useful if you want to extract control polygons as objects. |
● | It is possible to use the ExtractControlPolygon command to create polygon data that you can export and manipulate in a program that handles mesh smoothing. |
