Bottom: Increasing the envelope size corrects the mesh problem in the pelvis area.
1
In the Selection Level group, turn on Link. In a viewport, select the
middle link.
2 In the Parameters group, turn on Both, and then increase the value of
Radial Scale until the outer envelope just surrounds the mesh in pelvis
area.
NOTE With Both turned on, both the inner and outer bounds scale together.
3 Increase the Parent Overlap value until the inner (red) envelope appears
through the mesh.
4 If necessary, decrease the Falloff value to strengthen this envelope.
5 To finish correcting the pelvis area, adjust the Overlap of the thigh and
buttock envelopes.
To select and edit cross sections:
1
On the Selection Level rollout, turn on Cross Section.
2 In the Envelope Parameters group, turn on Inner or Outer if you want to
work with cross sections solely in that part of the envelope. Turn on Both
to be able to work on both Inner and Outer cross sections at the same
time.
3
Turn on Select Object on the Main toolbar, and in a viewport, click
the cross section you want.
As you move the cursor over a selectable cross section, it changes to a
plus shape, letting you know the object at that location is selectable.
By default, selected cross sections are yellow. (You can customize this
color with the
Blending Envelope Display Options dialog on page 4706.)
You can use Ctrl+click to add other cross sections to the selection set.
4 Use Radial Scale to resize the selected cross section, and the transform
tools to move, rotate, and scale it.
