Project RoadMap

Preliminary list of plugins:

• Create curve (made, later we should need a Tool and a better plugin for this)
• ConnectCurves or AttachCurves
  • A option is programming JoinCurves (2->3curves)
    • Would need "WeldCurves" (2 curves sharing one point -> one curve)
• AddPoint (on edge or on point)
• BreakPoints (create two curves from one curve, or open a closed curve)
  • Suggested name: DetachPoints
• SetFirstPoint(on a closed curve)
• CloseCurve (on open curve, similar, but not the same as connecting curves)
• CollapseEdge and Delete (edges? and points) should also work with curves
  • May be a CollapsePoints too?
• IntersectCurves
• CurveBooleanOperation or CurveCombineOperation ?
• NurbsCurveToPolygonal and PolygonalCurveToNurbs ?
• NurbsCurveToSplines (patches) and SplinesCurveToNurbs ?

Later:

• SimplifyCurve (with a threshold)

Progress of my Plugins

User:Caste/Weekly Schedule

Curve editing plugins

Status: 100%

Finished:

• create nurbs curve
• connect 2 nurbs curves via selecting the 2 points which will be merged - continuous connection works!
• set_weight of all selected CVs
• edit_knot_vector
• knot insertion algorithm
• knot insertion plugin
• curve splitting
• close curve
• removing unused points
• degree elevation
• PolygonizeCurve
• Wiki pages for plugins

In progress:

still to do:

• degree reduction?
• knot removal ?
