Re: Re[2]: Attaching curves
All credits on the curve tools go to Eugen, I was only involved with testing and bouncing some technical ideas back and forth. Eugen relentlessly fought SDK bugs and sought work arounds for SDK limitations, including hammering the devs with bug reports and feature requests on the beta forum (the latter sadly with litle success) to make them usable and as robust as the SDK allows. *raises glass to Stefan Kubicek* Cheers On Mon, Feb 17, 2014 at 8:23 PM, Eugen Sares sof...@mail.sprit.org wrote: They do.

Re[4]: Attaching curves
Thanks! Backup needed here, though... I got cautious saying the N word (Nurbs), because then the usual associations of them being legacy tech kick in, and everybody turns his back quickly. This is about being able to use CURVES mostly (which happen to be Nurbs, too), and which are a fundamental modeling asset. ICE cannot deal with them properly. If anybody else finds it as ridiculous than me that not even a handful of BUGS (not tools, features, workflows) get tackled in that regard, so we can at least happily write and use our own tools with success, you might want to tell the devs. Like surfaces, too? (I do) - Please also tell Autodesk. The only outcome of that ridiculous petition I started last year for better Nurbs only lead to the lapidary comment of Cory Mogk: we can't make everbody happy. (and, to whom it might concern, please refuse from wise comments about Maya having better Nurbs) -- Originalnachricht -- Von: Stefan Kubicek s...@tidbit-images.com An: Eugen Sares sof...@mail.sprit.org; Softimage Mailing List softimage@listproc.autodesk.com; pedro santos probi...@gmail.com Gesendet: 18.02.2014 12:15:32 Betreff: Re: Re[2]: Attaching curves All credits on the curve tools go to Eugen, I was only involved with testing and bouncing some technical ideas back and forth.

Attaching curves
Here's a simple question for something we have not found how to do in Softimage. I have two curve objects... a closed square, and a closed circle. I want to join them into a single object without stitching them together or changing their shapes. I just want to have an object that has both curves inside. How can I do this? I've been looking around, and there are ways to blend/merge/stitch curves together, but apparently, not to just attach them into a single object. Anyone knows? Thanks! --

Re: Re[2]: Attaching curves
Those curve tools are essential for task where you have to manipulate and construct with them. *raises glass to Stefan Kubicek* Cheers On Mon, Feb 17, 2014 at 8:23 PM, Eugen Sares sof...@mail.sprit.org wrote: They do.
