Hi scriptors, any thought if it is possible to add the option to choose the number of sides for the sold built around a curve in the Pipe script? I.e. 3, 4, 5, hexagon etc... This would be a great addition for building interiors. Go to work...!

Hi Matt, you can just use the regular Sweep function for that as well - just draw in a polygon with the number of sides you want and position it a distance away from the path curve (specifically, put it outside the bounding box around the the path curve). That will then use "auto place" mode for the sweep.

To use it select the polygon like this:



Then run Construct > Sweep:



Then select the path curve and right-click to finish the picking stage, that will make a sweep like this:




Right-click again to accept the current options and that will finish that sweep.
