NURBS Inspector Panel
This panel shows the content of the NURBS BRep object.
In solid modeling and computer-aided design, boundary representation (often abbreviated B-rep or BREP) is a method for representing a 3D shape. A solid is represented as a collection of connected surface elements, which define the boundary between interior and exterior points.
- The list on the left allows you to select a surface element. Each
surface element is represented by one surface, one outer loop, and
possibly one or more inner loops. Each loop may be constructed by one or
more curves.
Right click on surface to open context menu:
Properties - show propeties of selected surface element. - Larger area shows UV space. U - horizontally, V - vertically. Trim curves are displayed in color. Outer curves - blue, inner - red.
This panel may be opened only via Object Context menu, when NURBS is selected.
Mouse Controls
| Mouse hover in 3d viewport | Shows position in UV space |
| Left button click-and-drag | Pan |
| Right Click on surface in the list | Context Menu |
| Mouse Wheel | Scroll up/down |
| Ctrl+Mouse Wheel | Zoom in/out |
Follow Selection
When follow selection is ON, panel will auto select Brep Surface under mouse pointer 3d Window. In current implementaion, panels is always fixed to one BRep object.
