CAD
control curve
Software; CAD
In painting, curves that are associated with strokes. You can set stroke tubes to follow or be attracted to control curves, for example if you want to simulate lightning.
control point
Software; CAD
point that controls the shape of a deformable object. Examples of control points include NURBS control vertices (CVs), polygonal vertices, and lattice points. An object must have control points to be ...
control vertex (CV)
Software; CAD
In modeling, a point that controls the shape of a NURBS curve or surface. It is displayed as a small filled box. Also known as control point.
color per vertex (CPV) rendering
Software; CAD
Uses a color set to apply color to user- selected vertices. Color per vertex rendering can produce rich lighting and color effects, typically much faster than with texture mapping.
crease line
Software; CAD
In toon shading, a type of toon line that forms on polygon edges where the bend angle is greater than a defined value (the Crease Angle Min value). Crease lines are not view dependant. For example, ...
creation expression
Software; CAD
In animation, an expression that executes at start time and doesn’t change during the animation.
