Description
You can now create curves of degree 1 or 2 when in Control Point mode. This results in a more natural curve with no inflection in Control Point mode.
A curve of degree 1 can have two control points. A curve of degree 2 can have a maximum of three control points.
These minimal allowed degrees will depend on the curve connection. The default remains as degree 3, but you can reduce it to degree 2 or 1.
Benefits
Improved curves in Style and greater control over low degree curves.
Additional Information
Tips: | None. |
Limitations: | Curves of degree 2 or 1 can only be created in Control Point mode. If a curve of degree 2 or 1 is converted to Interpolation mode, the degree will automatically change to degree 3. Additionally, the curve tangency is changed from Natural in low degree control point mode, to Free in 3rd degree Interpolation mode. |
Does this replace existing functionality? | No. |
