Bend Plane to Curve?
-
I can't figure out how to do something, which seems like it would be so simple with the right .rb, so I was hoping the collective knowledge of this board could help!
Essentially, I am trying to bend a plane to match the curve of a curved line, ultimately creating a concave vertical sail-type structure. Attached you'll find a small image that illustrates the starting point, with the plane in the background and the curve I'd like to bend it to in the foreground.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Turns out all I needed to do was play with my width line on the red axis a little more and then use the up/down arrow keys to adjust.
Thank you for the help, and the incredibly quick response.

If I good understand your black curvated curve
(missing reference plane) because there are some possibilities
(vertical, horizontal...)

Hi,
the next three possibilities. what I still don't understand is how do I control the length of the curved object? I posted this also here
