The Spherify modifier distorts an object into a spherical shape. This modifier has only one parameter: a Percent spinner that deforms the object, as much as possible, into a spherical shape.

Spherify shapes the dog inside the snake.

The success of the operation depends on the topology of the geometry to which it's applied. For example, a cylinder with no height segments will result in little change. Adding height segments will result in a barrel at 100 percent. Adding cap segments will produce a sphere.

Procedures

To use Spherify to distort a box:

  1. Create a box in the viewports. Set Length Segs, Width Segs, and Height Segs to 10.

  2. Apply Spherify.

    The box assumes a spherical shape.

  3. Adjust Percent to less than 100.

  4. As you lower the Percent setting, the object gradually regains its original boxy shape.

Interface

Percent—Sets the percentage of spherical distortion to apply to an object.
