Abstract

Surface pasting allows the insertion of local detail to a tensor product surface without challenging the structure of the underlying surface. It works by applying feature surfaces on top of a base surface to create a composite surface. Previous modeling systems for pasted surfaces only allowed users to translate, rotate, and resize pasted features, and did not support direct manipulation. In this paper, we describe a method for the direct manipulation of pasted surfaces that allows the user to edit a surface at any level in the pasting hierarchy.
