Previewing key components
- [Narrator] In the last video, we wrapped up another of the major steps in our algorithm, setting up this region difference component to subtract the spline profiles from the trapezoidal shelf profiles, and in this video, I'd just like to do a little bit of cleanup, and just make sure that the correct components are getting previewed. So, we're continuing on from where we left off in the last video. With my region difference component selected, let's zoom in a little bit here in Rhino, you can see I've got some other residual lines here, and really, I'm only interested in these trapezoidal shapes with the little notches cut out. So, let's backtrack, and it looks like, I think we've got a few components here that we need to disable preview on. So, I'm looking at the step where we are sorting out corresponding profile edges and diagonals. So, I'm going to go ahead and click on the merge, and shift, click, grab all those items, and just right click on the canvas, and say, "Preview off,"…
