Hi Gabriel,

Thanks a lot for all your work. It works great!
The live preview and auto-fallback to cage curves make it way more responsive than before—almost instant.

The "Failed joints" selection works correctly in "Cage Curves," "Cage Surfaces," and "Cage Solid" modes, and it displays the problematic curves perfectly.

"Radius per style" is a very nice and smart feature. The pick button works well in simpler scenes, but in more complex cases, the point picker is a bit confusing when trying to select the correct point. However, I'm using the input field and can work with that. :)

Attached image is a test with 200 curves generated with the "Delaunay" node. I exported the low-poly cage solid into Blender. There were some parts that passed through each other, which I fixed with a smooth modifier; I also made the links and nodes a little puffier with a cloth simulation. It could have been done manually, but Blender made it simpler.

Great job, Gabriel! :)

Thanks

Good day..how to use the different radius? cant figure it out :/

Hi MO,
Thanks, happy it helps you :)
Radii picker buttons: agreed, on more complex structures the radius picker can be confusing ( I found out that turning off snapping for that moment helps a bit).

Nice workflow with Blender :)!

Cheers,
Gabriel

Hey Matadam,

to use mixed radii, you need to assign a different style per curve.
When you select multiple curves, each with a different style, the script will automatically generate up to eight radii fields.

Cheers,
Gabriel

Not yet tested but can we put other profil than a circle in this script ?

Hey Frenchy Pilou,
no - not yet ;)

Cheers,
Gabriel

So wait and see! :)
