TRIM MENU

The Intersect and Blend commands in this menu intersect surfaces with each other, and compute smooth blend surfaces between them. The result of these commands is to, apparently, cut away part of the surfaces.

The commands' operation modes are controlled with TRIMÞPreferences.

The trim curves which define the area to be removed in the surface are stored as 2D curves.

Building surfaces is the driving force of the DeskArtes system but intersections and blending are an equally important part of the modeling process. You should spend time understanding how to use these commands and how to use them as modeling tools.
