Skew surface

Hi all - If you are feeling adventurous, see how this prototype works for skewing.

ExtendSurfaceEdge.rhp (21 KB)

There’s probably tons wrong with it but it seems to work for at least simple and non-rational surfaces.

Currently, the command keeps running until Enter stops it - I am wary of commands that don’t just get out of the way but the context here seemed to me one where you’d ‘fiddle’ with it until you like the result. It is easy to turn that off.

You get one level of Undo and there is not any distance feedback, but I think that is ‘just typing’.

You’ll need to unblock the rhp and then drag and drop to load it up. The command is

ExtendEdge

I’d be curious to hear, if you are brave enough to test, whether it is on the right track… in real life.

It is probably not hard to add a center control to move the entire edge like ExtendSrf as well as allow extending individual control point rows - I am not sure if that is a good idea.
