Fit Lattice [Blender]
Quickly fit a lattice deformation cage around a mesh or set of meshes
If we want to quickly change the proportions of an object with a Blender lattice, in the past we have found it time-consuming to create a lattice, define it's size and subdivisions, make it the right size for the mesh (or meshes) we are deforming, and then add one or more Lattice modifiers to the original object(s) and assign the lattice object. This add-on allows you to do it in one click and has the option of presets
Features
- Quick workflow: Select the object(s) you want to deform, and select the 'Fit Lattice' menu option.
- Configurable: In one operation, also configure the number of subdivisions in the lattice object.
- Select multiple: One lattice can be applied to many meshes when those meshes are selected.
- Presets: Choose from a pre-defined list (2x2x2, 3x3x3, 4x4x4...) and/or define your own.
- Quick deforms: The tool can be used to quickly deform a mesh, for instance, a 'taper' operation.
- Adjust Rotation to Fit: You can apply a custom rotation to the lattice on creation and the lattice will wrap to fit the shape.
- Fit Lattice will now work in edit mode when you select faces, edges or vertices
- Compatible with our other addons such as the Plating Generator, Bevelled Extrude and Window Generator
