Hello again, We have “show curve edit point” command, but we don’t have “show surface edit point command”. Sometime I want the surface touches at some point, or a fixed curve shape , my old way is to draw a curve that meet at that point and do the surface again. I discover that infact we can cont…

[image] CAD CAM CNC: I’d like the moveUVN GUI to be improved relative to this subject as well. I think the UV smoothing should have option Yes, its exploreration when I need to do specific things, I just think if curve have edit point to showup and control, why not the surface.

Indeed, this used to be a major issue for me. I think I’m now remembering how nice T-splines were cause the points were on the “surface” per say. I think subd’s are this way now. So maybe there would be a benefit for converting to subd’s in a workflow if you must have this interface while editing…

[image] VinPo: Maybe this command exist and i don’t know. I hope in the future there is command to show surface edit point for easier shape control. thanks Try HBar HBar allows direct editing of a surface or curve by selecting and moving an arbitray point on the surface or curve. It also all…

[image] CAD CAM CNC: I think subd’s are this way now. So maybe there would be a benefit for converting to subd’s in a workflow if you must have this interface while editing. SubD control points are off the smooth subd surface, similar to NURBS control points.

seems like I remember something that did, was it a tspline option?

[image] CAD CAM CNC: :exploding_head: I guess I’d forgotten about this, and it works on srf’s? :open_mouth: As I described in my post above, it works on surfaces.

Maybe I’m missing something but what about _PointsOn / _PointsOff? Shortcuts are oon F10 / F11

Unfortunately I didn’t learn any of grasshopper.

The question is about “edit points”, not “control points”, aka “control vertices” or “verts”. For more about “edit points”, also known as “Greville points”, in Rhino see Edit/Greville point explanation wanted
