[Frage] Tube


Hi, Could anyone give me directions on how to make a smartpart as a sketch? I think we should use the TUBE command but I would like to make sure that:
1) there is the possibility of creating a customizable section (possibility of adding/removing points);
2) there is the possibility of adding/removing points from the path.
Thank for help.

... now the end of the free service is reached. Finally, deal with the SmartPart language, take a training or hire someone to do whatever you want to program it.

Sí se puede. La única limitación conocida es que la trayectoria solo puede ser poligonal.

If possible. The only known limitation is that the path can only be polygonal.

Hi Danilos,

Yes, of course it can be done.
Give it a try and see what you can achieve...

Hi JR, thank you for your example!

A simple example would have been more useful but thanks for the suggestion anyway.

I was expecting that answer but trying things out for yourself is the best way to improve your knowledge and gain confidence.
You could have found the answer to your 2 questions by doing a simple test. It would have taken even less time than writing the message.
And the help functions are there to give the basic explanations.
Thanks to JR for giving this example anyway.

Hi Danilos,

The last point of your section (profile) must have "-1" for "s", not "0".
The first and last points for the path of TUBE can be the same as the second and the before last points.

... wich "s"? I don't understand

The syntax for Tube function is:
TUBE n , m , mask , u1 , w1 , s1 , ... , un , wn , sn , x1 , y1 , z1 , angle1 , ... , xm , ym , zm , anglem
I talk about these "s" values.
