Patch not working like expected in WIP. I have attached the curves in question and an image.
I would expect the patch to cover the whole area of the curves selected and also try and stay constrained to the outside curve.
the bottom left corner even with rotation is off of the starting curves
please advise if this is a user error
curves for patch.3dm (36.0 KB)
ok… question with that. I’m used to selecting all curves and then running the command. how do i set the constraints on already selected items?
The dots are clickable
Left click increases, right click decreases the continuity level.
For curves there is only a toggle between G0 and internal. Points are always internal
for some reason I do not see the dots.
Hmm that’s odd.
Pls run _SystemInfo in Rhino and post back the results.

Can you see if there are dots after switching to OpenGL?
(In Options > View)
switching to OpenGL did not help but I just checked for updates and the most recent update now allows the dots to show on my machine.
Okay, thanks for reporting back, glad you got it fixed.
yes there was this bug:
Patch: Continuity dots not visible in viewports (RH-90720)
What’s the difference between “G0” and “I” for the internal curves? Perhaps the “G0” is more strict, whereas “I” allows some loose deviation?
Curves can be a boundary constraint or an internal constraint, but both are positional constraints. Currently, Patch will not recognize internal constraints as such automatically.
Next to that, internal constraints have their own tolerance setting.
Thank you for the clarification. So, the “I” type could result into a more loose deviation compared to the “G0” type?
