J_MergeDuplicateDependants

Merge duplicate dependants that have the same geometry

This can be helpful, for example, in these scenarios:

  • if a curve has two or more identical margins with the same offset
  • if more than one identical smooth is placed between two curves
  • if a curve has two or more mirrors defined by the same mirror axis
  • and so forth

All dependancies of merged nodes are transferred to the only copy that is maintained.

Steps

  1. Start the command: if duplicate dependants are detected a dialog is shown, where all duplicates are grouped by their geometry
  2. Select the groups of dependants you wish to merge
  3. Click OK to merge the duplicates or Close the dialog to cancel the command
