      I've heard that the super-strength-viagra - like you use - is so potent, that if you don't swallow it quickly enough you get a stiff-neck πŸ˜’

        Keep on topic guys. I'd hate to have to shaft you outta here. So quit the dickin' around. It is easter after all. The time to reflect on what rose from the dead only to disappear again.

          So if I have the last previous one, non need to download this one? 😳

            Correct.
            I suspect you already have the latest version.
            Reinstalling it won't do any harm - it'll just be a waste of two minutes that you'll never see again πŸ˜‰

                It IS an 'oldie but a goldie'...
                It would probably benefit from a webdialog interface etc etc... BUT four or five years ago when I wrote it it was the best I could do...
                It still works!!! πŸ˜„

                      Right, but I believe Pyroluna's point is that there are MANY useful ruby 'gems' buried here...we need that official Plugin repository so that they are easy to discover and understand each one's purpose! β˜€

                        That's why, after some prompting, I resurrected 'Grow' into the mainstream so you might all know/remember it... πŸ˜„

                                It doesn't work for me if SketchyPhysics 3.2 is installed. If I remove sketchyphysics.rb from the plugins folder, it works fine.

                                  This is a known issue - SP messes with some existing base class methods and thereby affects a few other scripts...

                                      What would be the best way to let it "grow along path"?

                                          Well I do need some kind of scaling. As you can see from the image, I'm trying to make a spiraling tower. I need to make windows in the vertical segments, but the tower is quite large and the vertical segments get smaller as the tower gets higher. So I need the windows to follow the spiraling path upwards AND have them scaled down according to the height. Then I'm going to subtract them from the vertical segments to create the arched openings. It's a total headache πŸ˜’

                                            Try DrawHelix for the rail[s] - you can have different start/end radii and a straight-curve for the profile...Capture.PNG Here's quick example, worry about the fripperies like the door-arch later...
