Modo Edición

Menú:

Stroke ‣ Set Curve Type

Sets the spline type for the splines in the stroke component that are in the selection.

Tipo

The type to convert the splines in the selection to. Read the Spline Types page for more details on the different spline types.

Bezier:

Convert to a Bézier spline. A spline converted from a poly spline gets vector handles, while one converted from NURBS or Catmull Rom spline gets auto handles.

Nota

When converting from a NURBS spline to a Bézier spline, at least six points are needed. When the number of points is not a multiple of three a full conversion is not possible and the spline has to be truncated.

NURBS:

Convert to a NURBS spline.

Polígono:

Convert to a poly spline.

Catmull Rom:

Convert to a Catmull Rom spline.

Asas

Take handle information into account in the conversion
