Create a new curve that spans two existing ones.
To apply: See Merging Curves.
To redisplay: Select the merged curve then choose Edit > Properties > Modeling Properties and click the Merge Curves tab.

Inputs
|
Hide/Unhide |
Hides all the inputs for the generated object to simplify the display of your scene in the 3D views, or unhides the inputs when you need to modify them. |
|
Delete |
Freezes the generator and deletes the inputs. This simplifies the scene once you are satisfied that you won’t need to modify the inputs again. |
|
Tolerance |
The maximum allowable error for resampling and reducing the number of points on the merged curve. |
|
Continuity |
The continuity of the merged curve at the point where the original curves meet: • Position (C0) The merged curve may have a sharp point. • Tangent (C1) The tangent of the merged curve does not change abruptly. • Curvature (C2) Neither the tangent nor the curvature of the merged curve changes abruptly. |
|
Seam Mode |
The location of the seam between the curves. • First Curve The seam is located at the endpoint of the first curve. • Second Curve The seam is located at the endpoint of the second curve. • Average The seam is located midway between the curves. |
|
Modify Tangent |
Specifies the curves whose tangents are modified to maintain continuity. • First Curve The tangent of the first curve is modified. • Second Curve The tangent of the second curve is modified. • Both Curves The tangents of both curves are modified. |
Start, End Curve
These parameters affect the blending between the two input curves.
|
Range |
Affects the position where blending begins on the corresponding curve. |
|
Tangent Scale Factor |
Affects the extent of the influence of the curve on the blend. |
