[Plugin] Grow

I've heard that the super-strength-viagra - like you use - is so potent, that if you don't swallow it quickly enough you get a stiff-neck

Keep on topic guys. I'd hate to have to shaft you outta here. So quit the dickin' around. It is easter after all. The time to reflect on what rose from the dead only to disappear again.

Note that this version [v2.1] is unchanged from the previous one you might have found somewhere else - it's just been rehoused here !
So if I have the last previous one, non need to download this one?
My favorite one

Correct.
I suspect you already have the latest version.
Reinstalling it won't do any harm - it'll just be a waste of two minutes that you'll never see again

yes old but yet 2.1 2007 01 21
It IS an 'oldie but a goldie'...
It would probably benefit from a webdialog interface etc etc... BUT four or five years ago when I wrote it it was the best I could do...
It still works!!!

Dude. Why didn't I discover this plugin sooner? This is the perfect plugin to make a spiral staircase!

That IS one of the demos from looooong ago...

Right, but I believe Pyroluna's point is that there are MANY useful ruby 'gems' buried here...we need that official Plugin repository so that they are easy to discover and understand each one's purpose!

That's why, after some prompting, I resurrected 'Grow' into the mainstream so you might all know/remember it...
Here're some [old] examples...Grow Examples.zip -
Thank you for those
...now isn't someone working on a video tutorial? -
Grow is so old that there was only 16mm film back then
-
So a black and white silent film? That works!

It doesn't work for me if SketchyPhysics 3.2 is installed. If I remove sketchyphysics.rb from the plugins folder, it works fine.

This is a known issue - SP messes with some existing base class methods and thereby affects a few other scripts... -
Thanks for recommending this. It works a treat.
-
What would be the best way to let it "grow along path"?
-
Not this tool...
Look for Chris Fullemr's ComponentStringer and RickW's ComponentAlongPath ... -
Well I do need some kind of scaling. As you can see from the image, I'm trying to make a spiraling tower. I need to make windows in the vertical segments, but the tower is quite large and the vertical segments get smaller as the tower gets higher. So I need the windows to follow the spiraling path upwards AND have them scaled down according to the height. Then I'm going to subtract them from the vertical segments to create the arched openings. It's a total headache
-
Try DrawHelix for the rail[s] - you can have different start/end radii and a straight-curve for the profile...
Here's quick example, worry about the fripperies like the door-arch later...
