Abstract

A method for simulating a physical object includes receiving user input to move a vertex of a simulated surface from a first location to a second location that is across an edge of the surface. The method also includes generating a visual display that is configured to inform the user that the movement of a vertex to the second location across an edge of the surface is unpermitted.
