      I'd like to learn to do this too!
      Could you add a little "how to"?

        Hi KarinaGM,

        Below are two images.
        The first shows the Icon to press to activate Surfacegen.rb and
        that is the equation and other settings I used in the SurfaceGen Options.

        The second is how i stretched out the surface diagonally.
        This was rotated with the mover tool.
        And the rest is History. 😄

          Here's the formula for a cushion or seat cushion.
          The next one that follows is a round cushion.

                where's the clap, clap, clap?
                Thanks, I'll go and get this plugin and try.
                One more question. What did you do for the corners? Shape bender? I guess not

                    That's what I discovered when I went to download the plugin.
                    I won't be able to use that one!!!
                    😢
                    Is it too late to learn?

                        Here is a picture with the steps that are followed to make
                        a round edge. I used round corners and the icon is circled.
                        The settings are pointed out in red.
                        Its starting to look like Spider Man's suit. 😄

                          I used the Shape Bender script and it worked.

                                last week i had a similar task... in a quick sketch for a shop i had to visualise a upholstered piece of furniture, of course with curves. i decided to use a picture as the texture, since it was only shown half in the picture and it was just one small detail. worked out well in the picture. unfortunately i cannot show the full picture due NDA, but i guess it is safe to show the furniture.

                                gesteppt.jpg

                                do not look to close at the far upper left corner, there is something going on with the texture 😉
