CreateHomogenizeModifier

This command creates a HomogenizeModifier in the mesh construction history.

Using This Command

Select vertices and apply the command.

  1. Select at least two vertices in two different meshes.
  2. Right click and choose Homogenize from the listed options.
  3. The software adds an AttributesModifier to the mesh construction history of each mesh.

Figures

This command works by creating two AttributesModifiers and setting the second AttributesModifier values to match the positions in the first AttributesModifier.

AttributesModifiers Lack Delta Parameters

The mesh construction history can make it difficult to use AttributesModifiers for modeling as, unlike a TransformModifier, this modifier sets the absolute position of the vertex but does not include delta values. [Delta values are not included because the TransformModifier is responsible for position changes that take delta into account.] The "problem" occurs when the construction history updates itself but the vertex still uses the absolute position set in the AttributesModifier.
