      Try this - most EEby... tools usually need 'curves' - even when they are in the form of a straight line [divided] - made by using weld.rb on edge-sets...[attachment=0:13ntfsv7]<!-- ia0 -->Capture.PNG<!-- ia0 -->[/attachment:13ntfsv7]

      Thanks, but how do you weld as a curve?
      Sorry, newbie question maybe

      Thanks again

    • Extruding a curve into a straight line

      I am a self confessed newbie on this forum, so excuse me if this is an obvious question. I've had a search on the forum for an answer to this question but I cant find anything.
      I'm trying to draw a glass roof, the profile of he roof is curved at one end and then it tapers to a flat profile at the other end.
      I want to know how i can extrude the curve profile to a straight line.
      I have various TIG extrusion tools but i cant find the right one that will do this.
      I think extrude edge by rail is something that might work, but I want to extrude a curve along two straight line, not along curves. And this plugin will only allow extrusion along a curve
      Can anyone lend me a hand?

      I've attached a simplified file as an example of what i'm talking about

      Thanks

      Si
