Abstract
A computer-implemented method designs a three-dimensional modeled object. The method: provides, in a three-dimensional scene, said three-dimensional modeled object comprising a curve (C) defined by a set of vertices (V, V, V) and a set of edges (E, E) connecting said vertices. Next the method places a point (P) on the curve; stores an initial position of the point on the curve, relative to a first vertex (V); stores an initial position of the point within the three-dimensional scene; and modifies the curve by deleting the first vertex. The method further places the point onto the modified curve (C') at a modified position (P′) situated at a minimal distance from the stored initial position of the point within the three-dimensional scene.
