Ms. nick skiadas 0 Report post Posted July 10, 2015 Hello, i am trying to use a polycurve made of 2 different types of curves(b-spline and f-spline of different lengths) as a railcurve,but it's causing troubles to to final surface. Is there any way that i can evenly distribute the parameter 't' of the polycurve along it's length?(OR is there any way that i can evenly distribute ii's curve points?) Any other solution?

Mr. Claus Abt 14 Report post Posted July 10, 2015 Hi Nick,Expand the "General" attributes of the curve and choose "unit speed" for the parameterization. CheersClaus Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ms. nick skiadas 0 Report post Posted July 15, 2015 Hello, on lofted_plus_railcrv_.png i have a lofted surface( sections ,made of b-splines of same degree up to the waterline, unevenly distributed along axis x,railcurve on lower part made of a polycurve with unit speed parameterization). When trying to change from default to unit speed parameterization on sections A&B this problem appears (i need section A to have unit speed for a smooth connection with the fore peak section,which is made of a polycurve .But when i add the fore peak section the problem persists.Switching off equidistant causes the railcurve not to be involved) this is a subsurface on v1=0.5 u1=0.5( the problem is located at the corner).i think this is one possible cause. How can i match the parameterization of the railcurve with the v-parameter of the surface at u=0 (along the the axis x)? Any other possible cause to the problem? Thanks in advance!Nick Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Karsten Wenzke 12 Report post Posted July 20, 2015 Hey Nick, Is it possible for you to attach the project file? If you don't want to share it if everybody send it to me.Without a project file it is really hard/ impossible to tell what the problem might be. Have you already seen the new Tutorial "Fast Monohull" in our current CAESES 4.0 release?To open the Tutorial:Go to the Documentation Browser click on Tutorials.

Karsten Wenzke 12 Report post Posted July 20, 2015 Hey Nick, the rail curves of the lofted surface need to start/end at the first/last section of the lofting surface. Cheers, Karsten Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
