Surface controller with 1D array

In this video you will learn how to use the surface controller in a 1 dimensional array in para 3D, a parametric plugin for 3ds max.

Compare 1D and 2 D (dimensional) arrays

1D array with different kind of panel surface topologies

Built panel object and panel surface

Set up 1D array in para3D in “transformation” properties

Label “transformation” properties

Set up 1D array in FFD masterpoints

1D domain options: choose: vertices, edges, faces

Exchange panel surfaces: change 1D domain options

Built design example “Hexagon”panel object for “Reorient all faces”

Setup “Hexagon” in para3D as 1D array with “Reorient all faces”
