This tool creates nurbs tubes or paint effect strokes along poly edges and nurbs isoparms. Nurbs spheres can be created at vertice positions optionally. You can use this tool to render a shaded wireframe representation of your scene, including shading, shadows, reflections, motion blur, DOF and so on. Construction history provides access to tube/sphere radius, paint effects brush size and nurbs surface resolution. You can also use this tool as a modeling aid to create complex geometric objects like cages.
