Chapter 17: Joints

4. Press the [Bind] button at the upper left corner of 

the Skin window.

Joints are automatically allocated to each active

control point. This Bind function speci
es the

distance between the Bone line, which connects

the starting points of the joints, and each control

point, and then allocates proper joints automatically.

Here, you can see that Uni-Scale E has not been

allocated to any of the control points.

The reason for this will be explained later in this

chapter. For now, you will allocate Uni-Scale E to

the proper control point manually.

5. In the Browser, check that the Curved Surface 

is selected, then choose Tool Box / [modify] tool /

[Switch].

The Skin window display is switched.

The point numbers do not change. However, since

the lines forming the curved surface were switched to

the lines in the lateral direction, the control points of

the lateral lines are now numbered from the starting

point to the end point. The lateral lines forming the

curved surface listed in the Browser are arranged

from the top line to the bottom line. You can see the

difference because the joints automatically allocated

by the Bind function in step 4 above have changed.
