Surface Edit > Stitch > Shell Unstitch [Rhino: Explode (similar)]
Converts a shell object back to normal surfaces.
Stitching and unstitching Alias data de-natures the original NURBS data. To
avoid any data loss or deformation, always work with the original NURBS data
in Alias, and use the stitched models (shells) for CAD or STL export only.
Surface Edit > Stitch > Shell Stitch [Rhino: Join & CreateSolid are similar tools]
Creates a special object called a shell from a group of surfaces, in preparation
for export to a CAD package or STL (see Export to CAD & STL). To avoid any
data loss or deformation, work with the original data in Alias; save the le, and
in a new copy, stitch the data required for CAD or STL export.
Object Edit > Extend [Rhino: ExtendSrf]
Extends a curve or surface beyond its current endpoint or edge by adding new
geometry.
A precise extend value can be entered in the Prompt Line.
Surfaces can be extended, or generate a new surface from the original surface
edge. Trimmed surfaces need to be un-trimmed before Extend can work.
Object Edit > Insert [Rhino: no equivalent]
Adds an edit point to a curve, or an isoparametric curve to a surface.
Use to gain control over the shape denition of a surface. This is especially
useful in Direct Modeling. Insert displays the new CV distribution to help place
new isoparms interactively (CVs/hulls must be turned on to use this feature).
Object Edit > Attach > Detach [Rhino:Split]
Separates a curve or surface into two or more objects at any point.
