Kennedyme Posted February 25, 2021 Share Posted February 25, 2021 I am trying to create parametric extruded object. The tutorials I found are way to primative to be useful. I need to be able to take a simple 2d profile (think moulding) and extrude it base on the particular need. I work at a museum and we have simple metal rails of different lengths, but all the same profile. I link text and records in order to create a schedule of our inventory. Quote Link to comment

grant_PD Posted February 27, 2021 Share Posted February 27, 2021 Have you tried the mouldings plugin? You can keep a library of profiles that you commonly use. Quote Link to comment
Kennedyme Posted February 27, 2021 Author Share Posted February 27, 2021 @grant_PD Thanks for your response. I did look for a moulding plugin, but could not find the one you are referring to. Where would I find it? Quote Link to comment
