Title: Radiator Problems
Post by: Sknueppel on March 18, 2021, 10:22:32 AM
Hey there Railclone and Itoo community,
Finaly I had some time to learn how to use Railclone and im pretty amazed.
When I started to rebuild some assets with railclone in mind I saw your tutorial
https://www.itoosoft.com/tutorials/creating-parquet-floors-and-rugs-for-interior-visualisations
and wanted to build a radiator for my bathroom wall.

But got some problems with it.

In the firrst picture I wanted to achieve the space between the pipes with a null object (in the example I used geo to see, if it works). As soon as I "clear" the geo nothing appears in the viewport so it seems that I miss something.

In the next picture I tried to drive the position via "Xsize" of the top Pieces. Wich works, as long as I check "Scale segment".
If i decheck it it looks like Picture three.

I m pretty sure it is something pretty obvious, but I dont get it.

Hope this makes sense to you.

Cheers
Sebastian

Hi and welcome. It is really hard to debug RC styles from the screenshot. We could take a look only if You have attached a max file (saved as lowest max version possilbe).
Thank You.

Thanks for the file.
This style is all about the pivots.
Have not changed anything major apart them.
