Thank you for the great tutorial! How can we use flow along surface for a cube or rectangular curves?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

You can. it may deform the shape but you can click rigid option to keep it not deformed.

[@cristinafernandez8284]

Great

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Thanks

[@tangshaoxianterrence3639]

thank you veyr much PJ, i do have another question in mind, so from now on we use the curve from created from a flat surface or can we also use the curve from the two side surface? it gives a funny surface though

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

it may be stretch too much if the surface you plan to flow is narrow

[@nicolap.6628]

Thanks a lot for you video! Really helpful but I was searching for a tip that I didn’t find here, how can we keep the original design with no gap between the different parts if we do rigid yes? Is the only way posssible by record history and move them one by one? Seems to be a lot of work to do there should be something smarter to do

[@dguy-xk4fc]

A very indepth lesson, great stuff. But i keep wondering why we always need that plane underneath the honeycomb and select them both before you can flow along curve or surface? I am new to Rhino and see this as a on odd thing.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

that is for the reference surface.

[@josemauricio8763]

Great tutorial! Is it possible to roll a flat surface to make scroll with this technique? I'm going to use a predefined spiral for this.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

It may deform on the pattern depend on the size, but it is possible.

[@josemauricio8763]

@@PJChenJewelryDesign Thanks for the answer. That way I couldn't do it. The closest I got to the expected result was extruding the spiral and using the Squish command. After applying the desired shape over the 2D pattern, I bring it back to the spiral. Then I used the Split command. I'm trying to model a violin scroll and I'm running into some difficulties. Thanks anyway.

how do you flow along a subD??

should the design we need to flow (on a circle) need to be connected?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

no, but better control if you have them connected.

it is the direction issue. just need to pick the other corner of your target surface
