Multiple clipping areas
« on: June 08, 2023, 01:19:26 PM »
Hello, I'm having issues while trying to create different clipping areas. I have a column with tiles, I need to clip some parts but it clips all the X area. Wonder if anyone can help me, I attach the image, it is not supposed to go all the way trough the object.

Hi,

The "Auto Align" option within the Extend X/Y Size to Area mode should help you with this task. This option creates an array aligned automatically with each sub-spline. This mode is very suitable for roofs and panels. Two modes are available. For both modes, the Z axis is always perpendicular to the plane formed by the spline. a) "X --> XY": X axis is parallel to the RailClone XY plane (considering the local axis of the object). b) "to Spline": X axis is aligned with the first Spline segment (you can use the "Make first" vertex and "Reverse" spline to modify alignment). I would suggest you check the related "Creating Roofs with RailClone" for more detailed info and recommendable techniques.

In case of any further troubles with it, if possible, please feel free to send us your scene to check it here.

Best regards,
