        thanx dear TIG .. it is great. maybe the next step is adding options so that it could do something like Follow me ,+ FollowMe&Keep, but whit a noncouplanar profile (like your scrip is doing)... again :it is great TIG 👍
        تیگ عزیز،ممنون از سخاوت تو

          wow, really a nice plugin! thanks a lot, TIG! jumps out of his seat
          (and thanks Gaieus, for pointing me here...)

          that is quite a useful tool.
          next step: birial operation? (two different path-curves and/or several different base-curves...) 😉

            As Plot-paris said: "next step: birail operation? (two different path-curves and/or several different base-curves...) 😉 and then morph along rails to preset sectional outlines, and who knows what else?

            I am currently enjoying some experimentation with this plugin-- craggy curtains, canyon walls, insect "skins"....

            Thank you TIG

                            Congratulations TIG!

                            A very useful and well executed script.

                            Questions/Suggestions:

                            1- I assume the order in which the two groups were assigned determines the alignment of the mesh; to the last defined of the two selected groups.

                            2- Not critical, but could there be a Smoothing Dialog that prompts: "a)Smooth or b)Smooth and Soften"?

                            3- A defaults dialog triggered by pressing the [Tab] key? You'd would then be able to assign defaults of a Yes or No for each prompt and which which dialogs would be shown (if shown, then user could temporarily change their default as the script is playing).

                                  Hi TIG and many thanks. I've tried both "intersect with self" or not, but nothing changed. A little problem...

                                    Have you tried the latest version v1.2 ? I've just tried to reproduce your path/profile and I get all faces made - no gaps - Any edge that can get a face should get a face ? Your faces aren't reversed are they, so look 'gappped' ?
                                    The only problem I have was because of the convoluted result some faces orient wrongly [inside out] - both in the script AND within SUp later - the only fix is to reverse the problem faces manually ...

                                    I had to guess your model's details - I could test it better with the real thing - if after trying with the latest version it still gaps please PM me with the model attached, so I can see if I get the same problem...

                                      Can you subsequently get the face made if you redraw an edge ? If so then EEbyE should have made that face...
                                      I haven't managed to reproduce it, can one of you PM me a [small] model with the problem ?

                                        I have same result but seems normal as this function is not adapted to this!
                                        As the profil stay parallel 😒
                                        At each "rotation" there are creation of an external or internal horizontal face 😄

                                        For ovoid that make just an half circle 😉
                                        And a mirror after 😉
                                        But even with this there some gaps 😉

                                            I get no loose edges with either of your skp's... There is orientation weirdness as sometimes threes faces share as edge as it's convoluted in on itself when a circle... to be on the safe side I am adjusting the script to trap any edges without faces... Look out for update...
