It's OK on mac also

and also, try to center the curves VS your object
see my screenshot

Hi Gunter, are you using an older version like version 2.52 instead of the most recent version 3 ?

There have been some fixes to flow in version 3 to prevent that type of unwanted twisting from happening.

In earlier versions you can avoid the twisting if you rotate everything by 90 degrees in the side view so that the 2 path curves are flat in the Top view rather than being arranged vertically, that should probably then flow ok for you in version 2.52 .

Michael, yes I'm using v2.52

So this is weird.. I can get it to work BUT only if I click the arc (which I assume is the target curve) first and the straight line (base line curve??) second.

Shouldn't it be the other way round... baseline first and target second?

Thanks all.
Gunter

Hi Gunter, yes it should normally be base line first and curvy thing second. But the other way may produce a fairly similar effect since mapping from a curved base onto a line will also produce a certain kind of bending effect as well.

In v2.52 to get this type of curve flow to work it was needed to put both curves to be planar in the top view, if you rotate your objects so that it is like that, then it should probably work for you.

But I'd really recommend upgrading to v3 instead, there are a whole lot of improvements in v3 and one of them is to this specific issue that you're running into.

Hey Michael,

Okay, if you say so... :)

Just upgraded and it works perfectly.

Thanks for your incredible support.
