Divides NURBS into parts using other objects as cutters.
Steps:
-
Select objects.
-
You can select multiple objects to split with multiple objects.
-
Select the cutting objects.
-
Press Enter
to end the command.
Notes
-
The Isocurve option only appears when a single surface is selected.
-
Use Untrim
to remove a trimming boundary from a surface. -
When you split a surface with a curve in a plan
parallel view like the default Top, Front, and Right view, the cutting curve is projected on the surface in the view direction. -
When you split a surface with a planar curve in an angled parallel or a perspective view like the default Perspective view, the cutting curve is projected on the surface in a direction perpendicular to the curve plane.
-
When you split a surface with a 3-D curve in an angled parallel or a perspective view, the cutting curve is pulled onto the surface by closest points.
Options
Point
Pick locations on the curve.
Isocurve
Split an object by its own isoparametric curves. This option only appears when a single surface is selected.
Note: Use the Int object snap for snapping to isoparametric curves
intersections.
Options
Direction
U
Splits a surface with isoparametric curves
in the surface u-direction.
V
Splits a surface with isoparametric curves in the surface v-direction.
Both
Splits a surface with isoparametric curves in both u- and v-directions
.
Toggle
Toggles the direction between u and v.
Shrink
Yes
Shrinks the underlying untrimmed surface close to the trimming boundaries similar to the ShrinkTrimmedSrf
command.
No
Does not shrink the underlying untrimmed surface.
