RsSurfacemapDlg

Menu Button

RhinoResurf > Application > Surface mapping

Command Name

RsSurfacemapDlg

This command helps user morph surface(s) from one mesh to another new mesh and fit the new mesh accurately.

Dialog description:

Surface mapping:

Original&morphed mesh:select original mesh firstly, then select new target mesh.

Map edge nodes: build a map between original mesh edge and the new mesh edge.

Original surfaces: select original surfaces and click right mouse button down.

Apply: create new surfaces on the target mesh.

 

 

 

Another Command: RsSurfacemap

This command helps user morph surface(s) from ome mesh to another new mesh and fit the new mesh accurately.

Command description:

To map NURBS surfaces to new mesh position:

1. Click Application->Surface mapping from the RhinoResurf menu or type RsSurfacemap at the Rhino command prompt.

2. You will see a command option " Mesh Geometry Node Map" in the Rhino command prompt.

3.Click 'Mesh' to select the original mesh and the new target mesh.

4.Click 'Geometry' to select the surfaces which will be mapped into target mesh position.

5.Click 'Node' to map some nodes on the original mesh boundary and the target mesh boundary respectively.

6. Click 'Map' to run the program. The selected surfaces will be mapped onto the target mesh position.

 

The following picture shows the original mesh (in blue color ) and the morphed mesh (in green color):

 

The following picture shows the original mesh (in blue color) and the original geometry (in red color ), they are in the same position, and the surfaces need to be mapped to the morphed mesh position.

 

In the following picture, the original surface was mapped to the morphed mesh position successfully, and new NURBS surface (in blue color) was created on the new mesh position.
