Hi All,
im trying to achieve something i try to consider as basic but it takes more time to understand what's wrong than building it manually (and probably in real life also)
Excercising to ventilate a column, a window and a piece of wall around a spline but i can't get something visually correct.
- Cannot have a column at each corner or at least what could be considered as a corner
- Cannot get the piece of wall straight
- Cannot get the windows more or less acceptable
Maybe someone have an idea or a solution better than what i've cerebrally concluded
thank you

Hi,
Thanks for your questions and the file. Please find attached an adjusted version. I've changed the following.
- Made the knots on the spline into Corners. A few were Bezier knots and these will not generate a Corner segment with the default RailClone settings
- Rotated the source geometry so that it's along the X Axis and rest the xforms. Removed all rotation settings from the Segment nodes. I find it's much easier to work this way that to have to turn things around inside RailClone. Also one segment needed to be selected from he scene. Not sure why
- I'm not sure what you need to do with the windows. At the moment they are simply sliced if they meet a corner but perhaps you have other rules you'd like to use. Let me know how they should be distributed and I can help you adjust the graph.
All the best,
Paul.
