Tolerance—Rebuilds the curve according to
accurac y. The lower t he Tolerance value, the more
accura te the rebuild. Increasing Tolerance enables
the curve to be rebuilt using fewer CVs.
Number—(The default.) Lets you alter the number
of CVs in the curve.
Prev iew—When on (the default), your changes are
previewed in viewports.

The Rebuild button for CV surfaces displays this
dialog. It lets you specify how to rebuild the
surface . Rebuilding t h e surface can change its
appearance.

Tolerance—Rebuilds the surface according to
accuracy. The lower the Tolerance value, the more
accurate the rebuild. Increasing Tolerance enables
the surface to be rebuilt using fewer CVs.
Number —(The default.) Lets you alter the number
of CVs in the surface. Number in U specifies the
number in the U dimension, and Number in V
specifies the number in the V dimension. These
values default to the numbers that already exist in
the surface.
