Thanks John. This loaded fine, this is how I wanted it to look like-thanks very much. I did notice once I double clicked it to edit the 'ribbon' shaped changed slightly, back to how I had it originally, I have been able to test it on version 2014 and it edits fine. Time to upgrade I think! Thanks for your help.

Thanks John I have tried your instructions and I am not getting the results I want. I must be doing something wrong. I can't check your file as I am working in Vectorworks 2008 can you save it on that version. Thanks very much.

Hi I have tried using the the helix/spiral command to create a helix ribbon tree but when I extrude along the path with a rectangle to create a ribbon along the path the direction of the 'ribbon' or extruded rectangle changes direction. Basically I am trying to create a ribbon shaped christmas tree. See image,this image was created in Strata CX but converting back to vectorworks is not suitable. I need to create this in vectorworks. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks Satman68
