View Full Version : 2016 Adaptive component distorts when placed on divided paths

Hi guys !

Could someone please help me out of this confusion ?

I have a 2-point adaptive component of a glass panel and a top rail.

I have inserted this into my project following the steps below :

1. place reference planes
2. create in-place mass , draw reference lines on the said reference planes
3. divided path of the reference lines
4. placed adaptive component on nodes

Problem :

The adaptive component works only on one of the divided paths, out of 6 created.
On the other divided paths the top rail of the component is distorted (cross-section of the top rail isn´t constant).

I´ve attached a screenshot.

I have tried to use the adaptive component on other inclined surfaces (supports of the stairs)
and it works perfectly.

Where could I be going wrong?

Welcome to the forums.
When you create the sweep for your adaptive component be sure you 'lock profiles' to keep the profile the same along the sweep path.
