| Geometry Objects - Quick Navigation

Constructor:

Connect compound objects are not constructable by MAXScript.

Properties:

    <Connect>.segments Integer default: 0 -- animatable

The number of segments in the connecting bridge.

    <Connect>.tension Float default: 0.5 -- animatable

Controls the curvature in the connecting bridge.

A value of 0 provides no curvature, while higher values create curves that attempt to more smoothly match the surface normals on either end of the connecting bridge.

The following properties are available only after the connect object has been created.

The values shown for the properties are those for a connect object created from two spheres.

Similar SubAnims would be created if additions operands were used.

The operand transforms are in the local coordinate system of the connect object.

    <Connect>.Op_0__Sphere02 SubAnim default: SubAnim:Op_0__Sphere02
    <Connect>.Op_0_Transform SubAnim default: SubAnim:Op_0_Transform
    <Connect>.Op_1__Sphere01 SubAnim default: SubAnim:Op_1__Sphere01
    <Connect>.Op_1_Transform SubAnim default: SubAnim:Op_1_Transform
