Setting Curvature Values

You can change the curvature values at both ends of the scale and at three points in the middle so that the curvature values increment within a narrower or wider range, or increment more or less rapidly.

1. Click Options (Standard toolbar), or click Tools > Options.
2. On the Document Properties tab, click Model Display.
3. Click Curvature.
4. Select the curvature value edit boxes that you want to change and enter new values.

   You can modify the values at five intervals on the color scale; values are interpolated for the intermediate colors in the range. This table lists sample curvature values for some common radius values:

   Radius	Curvature	Radius	Curvature
   0.125	8	10	0.1
   0.25	4	20	0.05
   0.5	2	25	0.04
   0.75	1.333	30	0.033
   1	1	40	0.025
   1.5	0.667	50	0.02
   2	0.5	75	0.013
   2.5	0.4	100	0.01
   3	0.333	125	0.008
   4	0.25	200	0.005
   5	0.2	250	0.004
   7.5	0.133	500	0.002

5. Click Apply to preview the color scale changes with the new values. The intermediate curvature values also change appropriately.
6. Click OK twice.
