Troubleshooting

This topic lists how to troubleshoot errors on a subdivision feature in xShape.

Condition

You see an error on the subdivision feature, or some sort of unexpected bump, ripple, or a shadow on the surface.

Cause

The control cage might be intersecting itself.

Solution

  1. Turn on the control cage by selecting Show cage only in the subdivision toolbar.
  2. Inspect the cage to ensure that the elements are not intersecting. If they are, move the vertices in that area until the cage is no longer intersecting itself.
