ConstrainedSurfacePoint

A point used to define a constrained surface.

Example

application = cf.Application.GetInstance()
project = application:NewProject()

    -- Create the tables for the surface values

points = {}
normals = {}
uvSurfaceParams = {}

    -- Initialise the surface values

for v = 0, 2 do
    for u = 1, 5 do
        points[u+v*5] = cf.Point(u, math.sin(((u-1)/4) * math.pi) + 0.5 - v, 0)
        normals[u+v*5] = cf.Point(0,0,1)
        uvSurfaceParams[u+v*5] = cf.UVPoint((u-1)/4, v)
    end
end

    -- Create the constrained surface

surface = project.Contents.Geometry:AddConstrainedSurface(points, normals, uvSurfaceParams)

    -- Modify the first point

surface.Points[1].Position.U = 0.4
