I am trying to create a metal parapet cap in profiles. When I do a sweep, I get an error. Has anyone run into this problem?
OK, I found my mistake. A profile must have closed lines. Now I can not get the wall sweep to follow a curved parapet. Any ideas?
I've tried: modelling, host sweep, wall sweep, but it won't work on a curved or sloped parapet. Are you saying I must create a in place wall sweep?
Host sweep -wall sweep should work. Place the default profile first then swap it out.
If you having problems, can you post an image or mini file ?
What do you mean;swap it out? I will post an image when I get to work today. Thanks
I think the logic runs that these elements are essentially created in-place, as I imagine you have edited the profile or used a void cut, so the automatic tools won't work and yes, you'll need to do some smarter modelling.Originally Posted by BomberAIA
It should only be a case of defining a profile family and loading it (so that it can be reused) then selecting the path by picking in a 3D view.
Substituting another profile for the default profile used by the Host Sweep tool.Originally Posted by BomberAIA
