RsFaceFromLines

Menu Button

Resurf > Faces from lines

Command Name

RsFaceFromLines

This command helps user model NURBS surfaces from selected lines. The NURBS patches reach exact G1 continuity on transition boundary.

Command description:

To model NURBS surfaces from selected lines:

1. Click Faces from lines from the RhinoResurf menu or type RsFaceFromLines at the Rhino command prompt.

2. Click left-mouse button to select the lines which will be used for surface generation, then click right-mouse button.

3. Wait for a while, NURBS surfaces will generate.

Notation:

* This command create NURBS surface which are similar to the shape of the selected lines, but the surface does not fit the mesh in high precise;

The following three pictures show a mesh and the NURBS surfaces modeled from the lines.

Pic.2 NURBS surfaces modeled from the lines
