Purpose
To match the boundaries of two specified adjacent surfaces.
Syntax
ALIGN < $W $W > < /TANGENT ! /CURVATURE >
Description
Where two specified surfaces have common corners but the associated boundaries do not match, the boundary of the second surface is adjusted to match the adjacent boundary of the first surface.
If the command is issued without any parameters then the cursor is used to select the two surfaces and the common boundary will have knuckle continuity.
The surfaces must be single-sided and have the same number of control points on the adjacent boundaries.
Command Qualifiers
|
$W $W |
The names of the two surfaces of which the boundaries are to be aligned. |
|
/TANGENT |
An optional qualifier that specifies that in aligning the patches, tangent continuity (first order) is to be applied at the common boundary. |
|
/CURVATURE |
An optional qualifier that specifies that in aligning the two patches, curvature (second order) continuity is to be applied at the common boundary. |
