Steps

Command-line options

ControlPolygon

Allows dragging a curve/surface control point along the control polygons that connect to it.

Note

  • When dragging multiple control points, press Shift key to make all points move the same absolute amount instead of moving proportionally based on the length of each control polygon chord.

  • To track on extensions of the control polygon, track to the control polygon in the opposite direction a short distance, press the Tab key to lock the direction, and then drag out along the extension.

CPlane

Sets object dragging parallel to the construction plane.

UVN

Sets surface control point dragging to conform to the surface u, v, and normal directions.

View

Sets object dragging parallel to the view plane.

World

Sets object dragging parallel to the world xy plane.

Next

Drag Strength

The DragStrength command sets the amount of drag strength for Gumball and for dragging objects, including control points.

When the control is open the drag strength can be set numerically, or using the spinners or the slider. The spinners halve or double the drag strength per click. When the control is closed, drag strength is reset to 100%. However, the control remembers its setting within an editing session and will reset the drag strength when the control is reopened.
