Curves IsoCurve/it

The Curves IsoCurve tool applies a UV oriented lattice onto selected surfaces.

Above: shows the surface before (left) and after (right) applying the tool

1. Select one or more faces in the 3D view.
2. There are several ways to invoke the tool:
   • Press the IsoCurve button.
   • Select the Surfaces → IsoCurve option from the menu.
3. A IsoCurve object is created for each selected face, applying a UV oriented lattice on each face.
4. Optionally edit the values in the Property editor to change the numbers of iso curves along U and V directions and adjust the related properties (see Properties below).

• Curves can be extracted as a subelement (e.g: with Curves JoinCurves) for others uses or just to help to visualize the shape.

A IsoCurve object is derived from a Part Feature object and inherits all its properties. It also has the following additional properties:
