Vertex Mapping dialog box

Vertex mapping is a technique to help create flow between section vertices; you can map a vertex or point on one cross section to a vertex or point on another cross section. Vertex mapping is useful for controlling or eliminating twists and discontinuities in a surface. If there is a vertex count mismatch between sections, equally spaced vertices are used on each section.

Map Sets

Lists the sets of mapped vertices you have defined. The first time you display the dialog box, the list contains a single set. You cannot delete the initial set within the list.

You can add or delete vertex map sets to better control the surface flow between the cross sections.

Add

Adds a new mapped vertex set.

To add a new set, click the Add button, and then click two points between the cross sections to define the connect points for the new vertex mapping.

You can also right-click outside of the dialog box to add the new set to the list, define the two points between the cross sections, and then right-click a second time to accept the changes and dismiss the dialog box.

Delete

Deletes an existing mapped vertex set.

To delete a set, select the set in the dialog box and click the Delete button. You can also click the vertex mapping line in the graphic window and then click the Delete key to delete the selected set.

Note:

You cannot delete the initial set in the list.
