Can't array in a straight line (vertically)

[Adam Mac]

Hi all -

Have the above problem when trying to create a window shutter family (attached).
I would appreciate any pointers as to why i can't get the horizontal struts to array
vertically without skewing.

TIA

Adam

Have you checked out my tutorial?

Remember you must constain the first and last or first and second element in all axis that they will be flexed to prevent what your experiencing.

experiencing the same problem here w/ the rungs of a roof ladder family, will have to check it out.

Which tutorial ?

[eddy.lermytte]

I think Chris refers to his tutorial "Nested & Arrayed Families.
A nice one ...

have a look at the Rfa to keep the array vertical without skewing.

I'm not sure of how old the version Eddy has. Thanks for posting but i think its best that its only on here once so as to keep the server size down.
