How does it works with 90degree angle? It seems very usable for a sweep profiles in archviz.

Rastart · February 14, 2019, 7:14am

It should works fine, the calc_shell_factor () function return a multiplier to correct size according the angle.

swathi · February 14, 2019, 7:23am

Not working for me
It says
“ZeroDivisionError: flot division by zero”

Rastart · February 14, 2019, 7:51am

I get this error when I miss to select the profile face… First select face loop and at last select the single face polygon you want to use like profile (it has to be recognized like active in the selection history)

swathi · February 14, 2019, 8:09am

This message after I selected the loop and then the profile face to activate it:frowning_face:

Rastart · February 14, 2019, 8:09am

at moment to get uniform offset use vertex normal ( I ll try to improve it when I’ll switch to blender 2.8 )

Rastart · February 14, 2019, 8:14am

very strange… the selection it’s something like that?

swathi · February 14, 2019, 8:17am

I think I find my error. Let me try it again.
Thank you for this fantastic add on and early waiting for the 2.8 version

If I figured out how this work [Addon] Perfect Shape - Shape Extrude Tool,

swathi · February 15, 2019, 2:10am

A wish list for new version.

Using curve profile instead of face.
As i told before just a wishlist.
