Refit to Tolerance

The FitSrf command tries to reduce the number of surface control points while maintaining the surface's same general shape.

Steps

  1. Select surfaces.
  2. Type a new tolerance value or press Enter to accept the default.
  3. Type 0 (zero) to use the current absolute tolerance.

Note

  • Use the FitSrf command for replacing surfaces with too many control points.
  • When the input to the FitSrf command is a wiggly surface with lots of control points, the FitSrf command tries to compute a surface that has the same general shape but fewer control points.
