[Plugin] FollowMe and keep (v0.04 update 20090210)
-
TIG,
When I used the Mirror Extension (which I assume was written by you), the console was populated with information, because I made a mistake in the way I used the extension.
When I used the FollowMeAndKeep Extension there were no comments in the Ruby Console, but nothing happened either.
However, subsequently, I changed the position of the surface from horizontal to vertical, and changed the path from pointing downwards at an angle of about 42° to 0° which then created the extrusion. But it did not correctly follow the path will have to try other angles, dimensions, etc. until I get it right.
Previously I have used the Eneroth Upright extruder, but I had problems with that one as well.
I shall keep on trying.
Thank you all for your help.

John, it sounds like Follow and Keep may not be what you need.
Best bet would be to start a new thread asking 'How to make this shape?'
Add images of what you want to achieve and any model you have so far so we can perhaps offer better suggestions. -
Box,
After having changed the position of the surface from horizontal to vertical, and changed the path from pointing downwards at an angle of about 42° to 0°, I also used the Scale tool to increase the size of the whole thing by 100; this appeared to make the FollowMeAndKeep Extension do what I wanted. Then I used the Scale tool to take me back to the original size; all was good.
So, I have finally solved my problem and once again thank everyone for their help and suggestions.
