You need a "Group with [only] target surface" here too...

Hi,

I'm having an issue imposing a grid on a curved 3D surface. I have the projection plane group, target surface group, and connection edge group, all in one group. When I select the entire group and do extensions > flowify > impose grid, in order to check to see if it all works right, I dont get a grid. I adjusted the target surface so that there isnt overlapping geometry (which is barely present at the bottom of the cone) but that still didn't make a difference.

My target surface group uses a radial grid and not a rectangular grid in its hidden geometry, is this the problem? When I try it using a target surface with simpler rectangular geometry it works fine.

On destination mesh:
You have two group levels inside that mesh group so I exploded that one.
I removed the rim around that mesh since it is not needed to wrap that Voronoi mesh.
Run Solid inspector and removed stay edges.
Removed line group and created it again.

On Voronoi mesh I removed thickness, you can add it after you create a new one using the JointPushPull plugin.

There are some weird spikes after I run Flowify but you can move them to their position manually.

Hi there, can I ask one thing?
I tried to use plugin but I guess doesn't work when file is huge....
Clicked plugin and nothing happened. No alarm.....
Is there any method without divide geometry?
Any help will be helpful
Many thanks.

Hello!

I'm trying to use the Flowify extension to apply tufting to a curved sofa, but it looks like Flowify is only compatible with Sketchup 2019 and under. I was wondering if there is a similar extension I can use to do the same effect of bending the geometry?

Thank you in advance,
Amy

I use Flowify for that purpose also and it works in SU 2021 just fine.
Can you post pictures or a file so we can see what is the problem?

So I deleted some of your model because I do not have time to do it all.
You should try and do a portion at a time to have more control and to not stall your computer.
I used just the Flowify method and not Flowify without cut
Here is my try on curved baluster:

Few notes:

You can not use components, only groups
Clean your model of unnecessary geometry, like internal geometry.
Clean your model of unnecessary lines, if you do not have any use for them.
