then the wrap spline
will be used to cut away the portion of the target object outside the
wrap spline. Note that a trim curve cannot cross over a seam (where the
object is closed).
´ Click OK.
Each control vertex of the wrap spline or mesh will be projected in the
direction of the corresponding control vertex on the direction spline
or mesh, until it makes contact with the target surface. To visualize
this, imagine a line drawn from each control vertex of the wrap spline
or mesh to the corresponding control vertex on the direction spline or
mesh. Each control vertex of the wrap spline or mesh is moved to the point
where the line touches the target object.
Using PiXELS3D with the
Wacom Intuos Tablet
To use a Wacom Intuos Tablet with PiXELS3D you will need to have the
"Wacom Tablet" control panel version 4.2.0 or later in the "Control Panels"
folder of the System folder of the startup disk of your Macintosh. Other
tablets may work, but they have not been tested by Pixels. The Wacom tablet
is particularly useful with the PiXELS3D "Sculpt" tool. Note that you
must have the Studio or Studio Pro versions of PiXELS3D to use the Sculpt
tool. If you have the Standard version, the Sculpt tool will not appear
in the tool palette. When you select the Reshape>Sculpt
tool, you will see the "Sculpt Options" dialog box. Along the right side
of the dialog are a series of check boxes that control how the pen affects
the Sculpt tool. The sliders for "Size", "Softness", and "Pressure" set
the maximum values for each of those parameters when using the tablet.
In other words they set the sensitivity of the pen for those parameters.
When the "Angle" checkbox is checked, the angle of the pen modifies the
base angle selected in the radio buttons to the left: "Screen" or "Normal".
If "Screen" is selected the base angle is perpendicular to the screen.
If "Normal" is selected the base angle is perpendicular to the object
surface.
