Evaluating curve continuity

“

- Let's take a look at how to evaluate curve continuity. So we looked at surface continuity and curve continuity is just as important. Typically when we're doing a surfacing exercise, we'll start with curves, so if we can make the continuity really good between those curves, the resulting surfaces will inherit that quality level and should be a lot better. So let's take a look at these two curves here to start with. So we're going to do an Evaluation function here, so Continuity, Curve Continuity and we're going to say Reset with that and let's just go with Position for now. So I'm going to pick right at the common point between those two curves and I end up with a little green square. Now that's telling me that that is positional continuity or G0. Now, I've got my Information Window opened up as well. Because that locator is selected, I can get information about that. If it's not selected, just go up to Pick, Locators, pick that locator and go back into Information Window. So the…
