## Object Properties

### Subdivision X

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_SUBRX` · Range: [3..1000]

### Subdivision Y

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_SUBRY` · Range: [3..1000]

These settings define the number of subdivisions in the X and Y directions.

### Grid Points X

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_SUBX` · Range: [3..100]

### Grid Points Y

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_SUBY` · Range: [3..100]

Enter the number of control points in the X and Y directions. The more points you set, the more control you have over the surface.

### Closed X

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_CLOSEX`

### Closed Y

Parameter ID: `BEZIEROBJECT_CLOSEY`

Use these settings to close the surface in the X and/or Y direction. This is useful for creating tubular objects, for example.

**Closed X** enabled.

The part of the closed surface formed by choosing **Closed X**, **Closed Y** will generally not intersect with itself if all control points corresponding to the outer edges of the original surface have unobstructed lines of sight to each other, with no control points or surfaces in the way.

> **Tip:** If you change the ,grid points of the Bezier object is reset to its starting state. Therefore, ensure you have enough subdivisions before you start.
