Jeroen - Company Call Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 Hello I want to create a roof with hanging drapes like the picture in attachment. I was hoping somebody could explain a better way to me then just drawing polylines and work from that? or is just that the way to do? Cheers Quote Link to comment
Sebastiaan Posted January 25 Share Posted January 25 I would extrude polylines to do this. 1 Quote Link to comment
Vectorworks, Inc Employee TomWhiteLight Posted January 27 Vectorworks, Inc Employee Share Posted January 27 Or Extrude along Path Command? Quote Link to comment
JBenghiat Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 Loft NURBS curves. You can either create a surface between two edges, or use one edge as a “rail” and use a profile. You can also convert a rectangle into a NURBS surface and use the reshape tool to create the swag. You can also try subdivision modeling, starting with a rectangle and dividing for each high and low point. 1 Quote Link to comment
mjm Posted January 28 Share Posted January 28 I guess I'd start with a nice catenary curve, probably drawn with the excellent catenary plugin tool from @Paolo. From there I'd extrude the line to the dimensions required. 2 Quote Link to comment
