See the Attribute Reference for details on attributes.

Surface

Surface

The curve surface is an optional mesh that is used to anchor the curves, and behave as a scalp for hair grooming. When adding a new Curves object via the Add Menu the active object is automatically set as the surface.

To set a new surface press Ctrl-P and select Object (Attach Curves to Surface) in the Set Parent To pop-up menu. This option can be seen as part of the Curves settings in the Properties Editor.

Surface UV Map

The name of the attribute on the surface mesh used to define the attachment of each curve.

Note

If the UV from the surface changed, run Snap to Nearest Surfaces to re-attach the curves.
