subdivision

Usage

member(whichCastmember).model(whichModel).sds.subdivision

Description

3D sds modifier property; allows you to get or set the subdivision surfaces mode of operation.

Possible values are as follows:

• #uniform specifies that the mesh is uniformly scaled up in detail, with each face subdivided

the same number of times.

• #adaptive specifies that additional detail is added only when there are large surface

orientation changes and only to those areas of the mesh that are currently visible.

The

sds modifier cannot be used with the inker or toon modifiers, and caution should be

used when using the

sds modifier with the lod modifier. See the sds modifier entry for more

information.

Example

The following statement sets the subdivision property of the sds modifier of the model named

Baby to

#adaptive. Baby’s geometry will not be modified uniformly.

member("Scene").model("Baby").sds.subdivision = #adaptive
