By saying so, I am not referring to the resonating divide between NURBS and polygons, but rather to the need of 3D modeling software to embody hierarchical, parametric and procedural logics. I was indeed already aware of the two main approaches to 2D design – vector graphics (Illustrator, Inkscape, &c.), which is composed of lines, and bitmap graphics (Photoshop, GIMP, &c.), which is composed of pixels – but the conceptual problematics of adding a third dimension to modeling were quite new to me. I was supervised during my studies by software studies scholar Matthew Fuller, and I kept from his work a strong interest for the various logics governing software tools. Yet, before doing so, I want to do a quick summary of what I found the most interesting in this week’s review/lecture. I of course won’t review each of them in depth, but I will give a quick overview of what I have been able to take out of some of them.

In fact, as most of the software we were introduced to were either free or available for free for university students, I used my Goldsmiths and McGill email addresses to download quite a wide range of them (Rhino, Blender, Maya, AutoCAD, Unity, Antinomy, 123D, Meshmixer & FreeCAD). With Neil inviting us to try as many modeling tools as possible, let’s just say that I took his invitation quite literally. Select the filling percent to be recorded.Ĭlick Save Animation to generate animation.Modeling: From Boundary to Functional Representation The larger number makes smoother animation but longer processing time. Select the format of the animation, AVI or GIF.ĭefine frames per second.

User can use this feature to view a specific value of result by adjusting the color legend.

Referring to the plane equation: aX + bY + cZ = d, user can specify each parameter to define the slicing plane. Referring to the plane equation: aX + bY + cZ = d, user can specify each parameter to define the clipping plane. There are three options, Clipping Function, Slicing Function, and Iso-surface Display The play button changes to Pause when playing.Ĭlick Reset and the Current Steps will be set to default: 100.Ĭlick a result item and check View Tools to enable view tools function.

It helps you inspect results during the filling process or at specific filling percentage both on post and XY Curve.Īnimation tools support following results:ĭouble click item in process result or XY Curve you want to play animation. Users can use the control bar to adjust the result density form coarse to fine.Īnimation tools controls the play speed and display step.
