- Title:
-
- Controlling B-splines
- Abstract:
- Traditionally, B-Spline curves are modified by having the user
manipulate their control points. This approach is non-intuitive and
increases the clutter on the screen. In this talk, I will present a
technique that allows a user to pick a point on a curve and move it to
a new location. A simple procedure is used to interactively update
the control points of the curve so it passes through the new point.
Various features and limitations of this method will be discussed.
