MultiPipe

The MultiPipe command creates a SubD pipe frame with smooth conjunctions from intersected curves.

Steps

  1. Select curves that form a frame.

    Overlapped segments result in a single pipe segment.

  2. Enter the radius.

  3. Specify the Cap and Struts options.

    0 is suggested when the input curves are not linear.

Command-line options

Radius

The approximate radius of the SubD pipe frame.

Cap (On/Off)

On adds a face at each opening. Off does not.

Struts

Lines are divided at intersections into "struts", and then the SubD pipe frame is created with the specified divisions on each strut.

 

3 lines are divided into 7 struts with 3 divisions on each of them.
