3DMESH
Quick Reference
See also:
■ Create Custom Mesh (Legacy)
Creates a free-form polygon mesh.
Summary
The mesh density controls the number of facets, and is defined in terms of a
matrix of M and N vertices, similar to a grid consisting of columns and rows.
3DMESH is a legacy method for creating mesh, designed primarily for operation
under program control rather than by manual entry.
To take advantage of smoothing, creasing, and refinement capabilities, use
the MESH command.
List of Prompts
The following prompts are displayed.
Size of mesh in M direction Sets the M direction value. Enter a value between
2 and 256.
Size of mesh in N direction Sets the N direction value. Enter a value between
2 and 256.
M times N equals the number of vertices that you must specify.
