Hi Fredrik - right the scaling rails are expected to run the entire length of the sweep, and it doesn't hurt any to actually extend them a little further past the ends even just to make sure they cover the full area.

If an area is not covered by the scaling rail it will basically revert to "regular sweep" in those areas which is kind of a very sudden shift in shape which isn't good.

It is possible to set up a script to do it, but actually probably your father's old machine still has the creaky old Windows paintbrush which will do the job for pasting and saving a jpeg file. Try Start/Run and then type "pbrush", and try not to laugh.

Please let me know if that is not working and I can cook up a MoI script for you for doing it.
