Adjustable Curve Blend

The BlendCrv command creates a blend curve between curves and / or surface edges with control over the continuity with the input curves.

Steps

  1. Select the curves.
  2. Select a control point to adjust.
  3. Press Shift and select for symmetry.
    A preview of the curves displays that allows adjustment of the curve before it is made.

Flip 1 / 2

Reverses the direction of the specified curve.

Trim

Trims the input curves to the resulting curve.

Join

Keys for control

Alt

Hold Alt while dragging the handles to change the angle between the shape curve and the surface edge. By default the shape curves are perpendicular to the surface edge.

Shift

Hold Shift to control symmetry. By default the shape curves are separately edited at each end, with symmetry, point editing is mirrored to the other end of the curve.
