 Pipe



This tool allow us to generate tubular extrusions based on curves. We can define segments and radius to get the desired aspect.

Parameters



Those parameters are used with one-curve pipes:

› Start Radius

Sets the radius on the start point of the curve.

› End Radius

Sets the radius on the end point of the curve.

› Segments

Sets the number of divisions along the curve.


Those parameters are used for pipes with multiple curves:

› Global Radius

Sets the general radius for all curves.

› Global Segments

Sets the same number of division along all curves.


Those parameters are used to align joins between two or more curves:

› Start Align

Rotates the start of the curve 90º when clicking on the button.

› End Align

Rotates the end of the curve 90º when clicking on the button.
