How to keep arc from segmenting
-
Greetings,
I wonder if there is a way to prevent an arc from segmenting. Sometimes when I draw a 2D form with an arc and then Push/Pull it, the new curved surface looks very rough. If I then undo the Push/Pull and try to select the the arc, I see it has become many segments. This is also tedious when selecting a path for the Follow Me on a segmented arc. Is there a way to prevent this segmenting or to combine a series of segments into a single line?
Thanks

I've noticed once in awhile very tiny arcs seem to get exploded when drawn and when a face bordered by the arc is extruded, you get lines for every vertex on the arc. I'm not sure why it happens with tiny arcs but not larger ones. You can re-weld the arc or join multiple arcs/lines with a plugin called Recurve. Try it and see if it helps.

Dave,
Thanks so much for the new tool!
That's just what I needed! -
Glad that helps.
By the way, if you haven't done it yet, install the Sketchucation PluginStore plugin and then auto-install Recurve and the other plugins you'll wind up with eventually.
