The Bend command allows for the deformation of objects by bending them along a spine arc. It provides the option to select either a single object or a group of objects. Additionally, curves, planes, surfaces, or solids can be used to facilitate the bending process.
Once objects are selected in the selection panel, they are surrounded by a bounding box. Lines with arrowheads appear at each end of the box. By moving these arrows, you can bend the object in the direction indicated by the arrows, offering a visual and intuitive way to control the deformation.
In the parameters panel, you have the ability to:
Deformation Plane: Select the plane of action that will influence the bending direction.
Symmetry Mode: Choose whether the bending is symmetrical or asymmetrical.
Manual X and Y Adjustments: For greater precision, you can manually input values for the X and Y parameters instead of relying on the arrows.
This combination of visual controls and manual fine-tuning provides flexibility and precision when shaping your designs.
