Hello all, I am trying to do something just like taz's "orient_shape_to_srf.png", but am having a spot of trouble. The simple goal is to regularly distribute small surfaces on a torus.
"Shingles-on-torus.3dm.zip" and "Shingles-on-torus.jpg" are uploaded to demonstrate the confusion. In summery, [1] the torus is divided into curves, [2] the curves are divided regularly for points, [3] the tangents of those points are used to set up local planes. Finally, [4] those local planes are used for the orient command, but for a reason I cannot understand the distributed polygon fly off the torus! Does anyone have an idea for why this might happen? Thank you, Jason
