you can also explore placing a centerline up a helix, then lofting the 2. Shell the result and pipe the centerline with what you wish.

So easier to create the 2 curves and flow those into a shape, that can then be made into a solid with the other steps.

))) can u make a gif for that ! I'd appreciate 3'd method

From Burmann method :)
Draw an Arc-cicle for the future Flow

Draw a vertical line, Draw an Helix,
Loft them

Draw another vertical Line
Call Flow
Select Surface
Select Second vertical Line , Select Arc Line
Flow

@ Michael : why we can't retake the first vertical line as Base Line for the Flow Function ?



PS

I have forgotten to make a Tube but that is trivial :)
and a Shell but that will be exactly the same except a thickness to the Helicoïd surface! :)

---

Doing the surface creation and shelling "after" tge flow, allows me to monitor the validity of the solid better. I would expect the loft or shell to fail if i had created a "to tight to bend" situation, where flowing the solid result, could more easily allow me to create some type of "bad" geometry (folding over on itself, etc.)

u are moi monsters, perfect results !
thanks !

Hi Pilou,

re:

You can, but it's a little difficult to select it since it's in the same location as a surface edge and the edge is getting priority.

Use Edit > Hide to hide the surface so you can then click select the first vertical line for the Flow base line.

Thx for the Info!
I was not enough perceiving! :)

ohayo !
Michael how can I add a script page to show last updates of scripts (remove history tabs) or better will be github ?

---

Hi Tudor, you could make a post here in the forum and then link to the forum thread. Github is a good idea too though.

rectangle interactive
the idea is to combines all rectangles under one shortcut and switch between them from hotkeys
q rect
w rect center
e rect 3pt
r - will be added - http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=8665.164 -> rect with 3ptcenter ~ another way to grow new rectangles
script is unfinished

Hi Tudor.
Only one rectangle ;-)

looks a like a runtime error, I dont have it !
it's about moi version or smt else not related to the script
or it might ask for html .. that I havent work on, try to add if it works

Hi Tudor.

Ok!

will be possible to improve antialiasing on plane surfaces ?

Hi Tudor,

Not for v4 but possibly at some point down the road.

Thnkas !
& I have one more modeling challange ! I was looking around moi todo it
It's a new year toy that has to be twisted ~~~ I gave up doing in moi

Hi Tudor, maybe try the Transform > Deform > Twist command for that. Something like this:

no control over twist, and ~ the countour that i need ~ misses the uv

any way that fillet g1-g3 could have a second slider for adjusting scaling*?
