Flow Along Curve
The Flow command re-aligns objects from a base curve to a target curve, making it useful for mapping flat or straight shapes to curved ones.
Command-line options:
TargetSurface: Uses a surface to orient objects along a target curve based on surface normals.
Copy: Creates a copy of the objects during the flow operation.
Rigid: Moves objects along the target curve without deforming them.
RigidGroups: Applies the Rigid option to groups when enabled.
Line: Defines a line as the base curve for the flow operation.
Local: Defines a "tube" of influence around the input curve, affecting only objects within this tube.
Stretch: Stretches or compresses objects along the target curve to match their relationship to the base curve.
PreserveStructure: Maintains the knot structure of curves and surfaces during deformation.
Roadlike: Uses frames to calculate 3D rotation when objects are mapped to a 3D target curve.
These options allow for versatile transformations and precise control when aligning objects to curves.
