Description

Draws vectors for shapes to be created.

Inputs

typehand
Handles
markhand
Handle mark number
typeelem
Elements
markelem
Element mark number
xi
0 - Do not create x perturbation
1 - Create x perturbation
yi
0 - Do not create y perturbation
1 - Create y perturbation
zi
0 - Do not create z perturbation
1 - Create z perturbation
xx
x perturbation magnitude
yy
y perturbation magnitude
zz
z perturbation magnitude
sys
System to create perturbations in (default = global)
sym
0 - Do not use symmetry
1 - Use symmetry
con
0 - Do not use constraints
1 - Use constraints
vvec
Vector mark number
mag
magnitude of perturbation
type
0 - XYZ directions
1 - Vector direction
2 - Normal directions

Example

*morphhyperpreview handles 1 0 0 1 1.0 1.0 5.0 3 1 1 0 0.0 1

A vector is drawn for each handle on the mark in either the xyz directions, the vector direction, or the normal direction. This is used to preview the shapes that will be created in the autoshape panel before creating them. If symmetry is used, all handles linked to marked handles by symmetry will also be perturbed. If constraints are used, they will be applied to the perturbations.

Errors

None.
