Extrude the graft surfaces along certain vectors

Hi all,

I’m trying to extrude the graft surfaces along certain vectors, but some of them extrude in false directions. I extrude some of those surfaces which extruded in false directions separately and they extrude in true directions when they are alone, but when they are grafted they extrude in false directions. I can’t understand the problem. I hope someone can help me.

Thanks in advance

Don't have your plugins so can't see what's happening in the first group. Appears to be duplicate code... one vector is reverse of the other. Can those two paths be simplified? Also, 'BANG!', 'Graft' and 'Simplify' is where I would look (if that code worked for me).

Second group works as expected.

Standby... got the first group working without plugins, simplified that code... Ah! Got it. Just needed to graft the input! Simpler code though, eh?

Hi Joseph,

thanks for your reply,

I used Human and Elefront plugins because I need to use the names of layers for radius of circles.

I used the reverse vector component, but still it has the problem.

In these pictures you can see that the vector direction is true, but the surface extrudes in wrong direction.

Did you try 'Graft' on the input 'Crv' list? Right-click that param and choose 'Graft'; that fixed the problem in your earlier code, as far as I could see.
