+ | ==== Selected Spline / Deselected Spline ==== | ||
+ | The following settings are available for selected and deselected spline. This allows you to reduce clutter in the viewport for splines that aren't selected. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Display Steps per Knot === | ||
+ | |||
+ | This is used when the spline is selected and drawn into a viewport. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The value is number of lines drawn in the layout viewport per span to approximate the shape of the spline. The higher the value, the smoother the viewport representation is. | ||
+ | However, a larger value also takes longer to draw and uses a bit more memory. | ||
+ | |||
+ | This value can be quite low if you have many splines in your scene and the ones you don't have selected don't have to be as precise. | ||
+ | === Line Width === | ||
+ | The width of the lines used to draw a selected spline in the viewports in pixels. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Display Alignment === | ||
+ | |||
+ | This shows the orientation along the spline as well as the influence of the up vector. | ||
