Full Version: Flow curve History

From: MarkBTomlinson

Hi guys,
I am playing with curves and flow to create some tubes pipes. I was wondering and couldn't find any way to have history on the rail curve to enable the manipulation of the tube flow result after creation.
For example to tweak the pipe to turn around other objects after the fact. History seems to work with standard Loft and Sweep but not Flow?
Thanks
Mark

Hi Mark - History is on by default for some commands like Loft and Sweep and off by default for others since it can sometimes tend to be surprising. But you can turn on history for the result of Flow by selecting the result of the flow (the resulting deformed object, not the original base object) and enabling history on it using Edit > History > "Enable update" button.

Ah that makes sense, I had tried turning it on but for the base object and not the result.
I will give that a go then,
thanks Michael!
