The Reparameterize command changes the parameter domain of curves or surfaces.

Steps

  1. Select a curve or surface.

  2. Type a number for the domain start.

  3. Type another number for the domain end.

    The end value must be greater than the start value.

    For surfaces, you are prompted to enter two sets of values for the U and V directions.

Command-line options

Automatic

Sets the parameter domain to approximate the size of the object. For example, a curve 5 units long gets a domain of 0 to 5.

Note

  • Reparameterizing does not change the shape of the geometry. It only changes the parameter range used to evaluate points on the object.

  • Poorly parameterized objects may not intersect and trim properly when combined with other objects. "Poorly parameterized" means the curve's domain or the surface's u or v spaces are tiny or huge compared to the size of the object.

  • If the selected object is in a block, a reparameterized copy of the object is created.
