DESCRIPTION
I wrote this script to help me when Patch Modeling. (Yes, there are still some freaks
out there who prefer a NURBS to Polygon workflow.) Basically, I've always wanted a tool
that would allow me to Add or Subtract a given number of spans to a surface, or,
Multiply or Divide existing spans by a given number. This simple tool does just that!
Pseudo-code example with a curve:
rebuildCurve -spans ($currentNumberOfSpans / 2);
Useful when you want to quickly rebuild an entire patch model up or down. For example,
twice as many spans for each surface in U and V. Or half as many.
Works for both NURBS curves and surfaces.
TO USE
Copy all the mel scripts in this zip into your scripts directory and restart Maya.
Execute 'oaSpansMaster' to bring up the UI.
Select some curves, set the options, and press 'Rebuild Curves'.
Or, select some NURBS surfaces, set the options, and press 'Rebuild Surfaces'.
