CaptainAhoy Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Hello, I have a line which I converted into a circle using a point SOP. I was wondering if there is a way I can create a spearate geo, for example a font parented to a flat surface (like a sign board) and align it along the curve so that it bends along the curve. I have attached the .hipnc file which I am working with right now. Any help would be greatly appreciated as I am trying to learn Houdini. thanks!~N sweep_orient_to_curve.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaptainAhoy Posted April 15, 2016 Author Share Posted April 15, 2016 Oh thanks a lot! That thread answered quite a few questions! I did, however, ran into another problem ... I am trying to wrap a grid around a tube object so that I can place a font node on top of it so that it moves along the curved grid. But, the grid always wraps around only till the half of the tube object and never goes all the way around. Any way to solve this? ex3_roof_sign_v1.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
