            There is a simple explanation for the time warp. Fredo, whom I believe resides in France, simply sent the update Eastward to us and when it crossed the Pacific Date line, voila, it is tomorrow. 🀣

            Besides, Curviloft can save you far more than a day's work, so the time warp is justified. 😍

                    Yea - we have a whole year worth of seasons in 30 minutes. Pretty much how I remember England to be like when I lived there. Just a bit colder and a tad more snow.

                      In Canada, except for the left coast, we get winter then a coupla nice days.

                      In Toronto, if you don't like the weather, just wait a few hours.

                      Not kidding. 6 weeks ago the furnace was on, then 2 days later the air con was on for 4 days, then a week and a half of torrential rain and thunderstorms. Then the furnace was back on for 2 days, then it became almost nice out.

                          finally had a chance to try the new one out and..

                          .. that's awesome how you can do this (obtaining the curves) using loft instead of skinning now.

                          i thought you might of just changed the skinning part of curviloft but being able to get the mean curves via loft (without the need for the extra set-up lines) is really sweet.

                          thanks for the update!

                            One more thing, Fredo (certainly I could also edit it but that's just a last resort). In the first post, you write Curviloft 1.1a and below you can download 1.1b. This may cause confusion.

                              NEW RELEASE: Curviloft 1.1c - 29 Jun 11

                              Curviloft version 1.1b introduced the generation of mean curves between contours.

                              There was however a bug, signaled by Defisto, when contours are closed loops.

                              Version 1.1c fixes this issue

                              See main post for download

                                  Pilou,

                                  There is no doc yet and there are many missing features (and probably many bugs).
                                  So I won't call it an official release!

                                  Fredo

                                    Hi. Great plugin!
                                    I do have one question/concern. I'm trying to use it for a curved railing. The profile is obviously not a perfect circle so it twists along the bezier. Is there a more effective way or different plugin to prevent the twisting and have the profile maintain some universal orientation?

                                    Thank you!

                                            FAK keep will not twist but does not keep elevation in 100% of cases. 1001 bit tools will work. It has a free eval period that you my want to check it out...
                                            Clarification: FAK elevation comes into play when you go over a "hill" and for railing this should not be an issue 😳
