      From the instructions...

      Your target surface isn't suitable.

                    The Error message Flowify is outputting is telling you the problem. Your source and destination should share some level of topological similarities.

                      Hi, i'm currently having trouble with Flowify.
                      I'm trying to place wall studs on a curvature wall but this input error keeps popping up.
                      I'll appreciate it if someone could help.


                      INPUT ERROR

                        n hong, Flowify might not be the best tool for what you want to do. I’m not a Flowify expert but my tests end up distorting the shape of the wall studs. Your might be better off using something like “Copy Along Curve” by Anton S.

                            The projection plane is either an empty rectangular face or a flat custom made quad grid with the same topology as the target surface.

                            Your target mesh is not Quad Grid.

                                The source and target need same topology and the support should be aligned as shown above

                                  ...you can go like this too

                                  So something in your setup is not right. Could be nesting order or topology...

                                      I believe it's not 4 + X = group
                                      but 4 + X = Select! 😉
                                      Then call Flowify! 🤓

                                        Hey everyone!

                                        I’m having some trouble with Flowify and hoping someone can help me out. I’ve set up my groups as follows:

                                        A – The curve

                                        B – The length of the curve

                                        C – The pathway

                                        D – The group I want to flow

                                        But when I select everything and try to apply Flowify, it doesn’t actually "flow"—instead, it just resizes to a much bigger scale. Any idea what might be going wrong?

                                        Thanks in advance! Appreciate any help!

                                        PS. I attached a video showing my problem
