Through curves

Through curves

Through curves

(OP)
Not Specified – the flow direction is straight through to the opposite side.

Isoparametric – the flow direction follows the isoparametric direction (U or V) of the constraint surface.

Normal – the flow direction is normal to the base edge of the constraint surface.

Are there any recommendations regarding where/when each of these options is to be used/best to use?

Thanks
 

RE: Through curves

More than likely, you'll have to experiment, as each setting will have different affect on the outcome - depending on the adjacent surfaces and what aesthetics your surfaces will require.

Through Curve Mesh allows for more explicit control than Through Curves in most cases.
