richnosworthy Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 This is probably super simple so apologies. Something i've been struggling with is simply copying a box to the points on a torus but to get the orientation to match the flow of the torus itself (ideally would work for any surface too). So far my best attempt has been trying to set normal and up vectors with the polyframe sop before feeding into the copy to points. Almost works but i get the geo flipping on the center and one vertical loop of the torus (indicated in red on the image). Whats generally the best way to get this to work? It seems like there must be a simple way to do this. Thanks copytotorus.hipnc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
