ajs Posted May 29, 2001 Share Posted May 29, 2001 I am trying to extrude a stairstep shape along an octagonal path to create arena seating levels. I have not found a reliable way to predict which part of the profile object will be 'up' in the finished extrude, and they are time consuming to do, which makes trial and error a pain. Also, when doing this operation, sometimes the extrude happens, and sometimes it aborts, even using identical objects. This last makes no sense at all, and usually happens when I think I've finally got the profile facing the right way. Manual says very little beyond 'extrudes objects along a path'. Well, yes... Anyone have tips how to make this work better/more predictably? The whole thing feels a little like a chimp with a revolver right now.
