Hey thanks a bunch. I knew I couldn't of been following the right procedure.
I kept trying with a line for my backbone, and even tried with a plane that matched
the same size as the flow object. But never got it right.....

I have Moi forums as my browser home page. Just now jumped to surf the web and read your reply.
Followed your tutorial and created this fun little doodle :) What a crazy cool time saver.
I see fun space ship making

I noticed the questions flow asks when done right are easier to figure out ;)

BTW I did get that rotation effect last night...How can I see uv's?

If you use a line as the base backbone, then you'll be using a curve as the target object instead of a surface.

Basically you can either do flow using a curve to a curve, or surface to a surface.

There isn't really any way to see them right now - but if you can clearly see that the result is 90 degrees rotated from what you want then it means that the U and V axes need to be swapped. You can do that by rotating your plane by 180 degrees around its diagonal. That won't be necessary in the next beta release which will swap and flip U V directions as necessary to make the corners that you click nearest to match up.
