Wow! I really like this last one!!!

Definitely look back at lamina too. The process has a “material thickness calculation.

Anyway, don't be shy about posting your results. That last one is beautiful!

Deleted several posts, as observations were weird symptom(s), not cause(s).

It looks like I was selecting different points on a curve, on different trials.
Maybe when selecting a closed curve, selected point/direction does not matter?

Hi
Thanks Michael, Another cool plugin.
I had the same problem "Zooen" mentioned. And I guess it's something to do with the "flow" factory?

When I select one of the "Zooen's" attached curves by "clicking", the problem occurs.
The results will change based on the selected position. (Start or end of the curve)

The problem will solve if you "drag-select" the curve.

@MO - thanks I think you have the bug diagnosed there, when the curve is click selected then Flow flips its direction but the Trim processing part of the script is only looking for a trim fragment that is in the natural curve direction.

I should be able to tune up the Trim logic later today.

Thanks for figuring out the bug depended on the click selection location that made it seem kind of random.

I'll also see about adding in a trim function on curves so that can be used in the future instead of the trim factory which is kind of awkward to script.

Cool, Thanks

Ok, script above (http://moi3d.com/forum/index.php?webtag=MOI&msg=11239.6) has been updated to fix the bug when click selecting.

Hi Brian,

re:

Yup, with the flow command if you select a base or target curve by a click it will use the side closest to where you clicked it as the beginning side of the flow but that is only for open curves and not closed curves.

The DashCurve script was inheriting that since it uses flow internally, but when it was flipped that was messing up the trimming part of the script.

Should be fixed now.

Thanks,

Thank you Michael :-)

Thanks Michael (and thanks MO for the bug analysis),

What a time and quality saver for drawing production.

I also hope that the integration of ordinate dimensioning will be included in the final V5.

The more I use MoI3D and the more I explore its possibilities, the more I find this software brilliant.

Hi Zooen,

re:

Sorry no that isn't planned currently.
