Dynamic Arrows
-
Hi!
I'm trying to figure out a way to achieve this kind of "arrows".
Do you guys have any idea how to make them inside sketchup, plugin maybe...
(model sketchup + microstation arrows)

-
Maybe with extrude edges by Rails by Tig

Here I am using only 2 curves ! A curve welded and a line (2 segments welded)In case of using 4 curves (2 profils + 2 rails)
Each curve 2 by 2 must have same number of segments for a more speedy result!
-
Thanks Pilou! I'll try that might work, I was searching a sort of "stripe or arrow along 3d path" simmilar to this would be awesome

-
Here's a couple of 3D swooshing arrows, made from some welded curves and a straight 2-segment profile with EEbyRails, afterwards the arrowheads were drawn on, the edges were hidden and transparent materials added to the surfaces...

Couldn't you use PowerPoint?
Or Illustrator if you have that?
Or do you want to orbit with these arrows?
-
Yes I'd like to draw it inside sketchup. I think a spline with EEbyRails solves it, thanks TIG

Or like this

Grow by Tig with some various possibities of regulates!
Curviloft by Fredo6
So just one line to draw, and 3 lines for the top arrow!
Total = 4 lines
I dont think that you can find more speedy and easy!

TIG, that shape is very lovely!

Great! Thanks a lot for your help guys

Hi soundtracker
Just use the SU text fcn and instead of entering text in the box just press the [space] and no text is entered.

Pushpin for leader.
Not perfect but OK for quick notation.dtr
