Set Continuity
Use the Set Continuity command to assign continuity for selected edges when manipulating a control cage edge.
Starting state
Sharp continuity on the four edges of the bottom face
Sharp continuity to bottom face edges and two adjacent faces edges
- Continuity can be switched between two states: Smooth (C2 continuous) and **Sharp ** (C0 continuous).
**
Smooth**
**
Sharp**
For selected faces, all edges are set to the new continuity.
Applying new continuities immediately updates the resulting subdivision body.
Every continuity edit creates an Undo step.
