Creation method#

There are two options for creating a Contour node.#

  • The first way to create a Contour node is using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need or words associated with this node.
    • divideContour
  • The second way is to select a Contour node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Toolset > Contour

Steps#

  • Create a Contour node.
  • Connect the curve witch wants to contour to the first port.
  • Connect the contour start point to the second port.
  • Connect the direction of the normal contours to the third port.
  • Connect the distance between the contours to the fourth port.

Once the node is created, connect the curve witch wants to contour to the first port, the contour start point to the second port, the direction of the normal contours to the third port, and the distance between the contours to the fourth port. On the output port, you will get the resulting contour points.
