Does anyone know how to twist an object in Vue? I mean realy twist, the kind that creates a kink at the stress point?...Zhann

Sorry, but you cannot do this in Vue. No kink, no bending. You have to do this in a modeler. Guitta

bummer...

Guitta and Zhann, there is a twist possibility in the panel property of the Vue objects. But it's not a powerful feature, I never use it. In a modeler you can do what you want, use amorphium 1.0 (free) and your object is bended, twisted, spiked, noised, bottled, flattened,... brushed, smoothed,... in one minute. Yves

Yves, can you show me a result of such a twisting:-)? I think there is a misunderstanding abetween Vue's twist possibility and the "twist" Zhann means. He wan'ts to do something like a kink (in french: "entortiller" comme crr une vis, par exemple). If you can do that in Vue, please show me:-) Guitta

Not possible in Vue... But maybe with the terrain editor... :=) Yves

... it should be possible to create a screw... (not to twist an object of course). Yves

Not either, Yves. Guitta
