Fixed. I think the validity check for Planes was tightened up recently and it started rejecting the plane I used to output.

thanks a lot,

i guess there's hardly a workaround until the next release?

maybe a custom component?

thanks!

but my curves tangle wildly, a loft of polygons drawn on the planes in this way would 'spin' like a sandclock when the curve turns 180°.

i already defined some surfaces to align every single plane to the nearest point on the surface. this works for the still geometry.

but for animation i will probably have to just pipe the curves (also heavy ..) and mesh them afterwards - so they get a uniform shape ..

anyway

tu

best
