Abstract
Systems and methods of updating graphical objects are disclosed. The methods and systems receive polygonal data which describe discrete points on an object. A control mesh and a smoothed version of the control mesh are simultaneously displayed. When the control mesh is edited, the smoothed version is automatically updated by smoothing only a portion of the edited control mesh to generate a smoothed section, and replacing a portion of the smoothed version with at least a selected portion of the smoothed section.
