MODIFYING A SUB-DIVISION MODEL BASED ON THE TOPOLOGY OF A SELECTION

摘要

A computer-implemented method and system create a three-dimensional (3D) model represented by a sub-division surface and defining a solid or a surface model. A selected entity of the 3D model is selected and with one or more surrounding entities a determination is made of a type of operation to perform. The operation is an add operation or a remove operation, and the operation changes the topology of the 3D model.
