      See the image above. I want to fill up the slope, at the bottom (the single lines). How is this possible? It is a parking garage.

      Thank you very much.

        It's a lot easier with a plugin.
        Check out Shape Bender (there's a video doing exactly what you want),
        Curviloft and TGS's ExtrudeByxx tools.
        They should all do the job, and so would Amorph from tgi3D.

                Certainly you could do it with a plugin but the easiest way to do this is to stitch the endpoints together. Just use your draw tool and connect the points, triangulating the mesh until it has been filled in. I think it is a good idea to learn the basics before getting confused with plugins.

                  Like I said above, draw from point to point triangulating the points. Fill in the ramp then smooth. Copy the ramp in the blue axis the desired thickness then stitch the sides together. It took me 3x as long to write this and format the images than it did to build the ramp. Sometimes simple is better IMO.

                  Hope this help Bram. Oh, and welcome to SketchUcation. πŸ˜„

                    Thank you for your reply. The last step (removing the lines) is not possible, it wil be emptied again... How did you do that? πŸ˜„
