Hi to all,

Follow me and keep process stops always at the same point. I couldn't find the reason. Thank you in advance.

Hi Charlie2008

I have used your model and I succeeded the follow-me operation.

What I have done is that I started the operation and run close to were you had problem,then zoom very close and I was able to continue the operation going one segment at a time. Pay attention because there are some very small line segments

I have remade something similar after seen your exemple
I have taken your bottom base line, welded it (I suppose that is here the problem !
(for any reason your baseline is not well welded! )

I extrude it with Didier Bur Plug "Projection"
I draw a diagonal line on surface with Fredo6 Tools "On surface"
I erase the top facets so I obtain your inclined curvated wall surface

I draw a rectangle
And Apply the FAK
No Problemo
PS For the selection I have a very more simple method!
In your there is another curve ! No need it!

If you must select segment after segment it's very painful!
Just make a "box selection"(left to right) and no problem if your upper curve is well "connected" or "welded" then add selection of the "rectangle" and make the FAK

I very well agree with you Pilou, But I have assumed that Charly2008 did not have the "Weld" plugin.

Also may be I have not made it clear. What I did is
Activate the follow-me tool then
clic on the rectangle and
follow the upper curve with the mouse up to the point where it stops following and
then zoomed in quite a bit and continue following the curve

Thank you to all who answered,

today i tried it again with a copy of the line and it worked. this step belongs to a quick tutorial for road design.
