Description

The tool DressupPathBoundary allows restricting the extent of a path to a smaller part of the object. For example, restricting a profile path to just one face or part of the model.

  • Create Box
  • Create Cylinder
  • Extend Model's Boundary Box: A very convenient way to limit a path is to select this option and use negative values.
