Member JanCZ Posted November 4, 2019 Member Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Hi guys, Im not sure how to report bugs, as i cant login to Mantis tool, so I will post it here... I created a custom shape in Blender to be used in Curves tool. The shape's obj is attached... When I tried to import in into the Curves tool, it threw an exception - with the dialog to save work. But sometimes it worked. The shape was imported to the tool, I could have used it, but when I clicked on Apply to add it to the scene it displayed an error about the self-intersections. But its really simple shape and it didnt work even if there were no intersection with other shapes. Sometimes when I clicked on Apply, it didnt show any error, just make the application nonresponsive and after several minutes I need to manually shut it down. Thanks for any help. Would really need to use this tool with custom shapes. plot4.obj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carlosan Posted November 4, 2019 Report Share Posted November 4, 2019 Hi The model have some vertex un-weld, ngons. I merged the vertex and triangulate the faces. Try now plot4.obj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carlosan Posted November 5, 2019 Report Share Posted November 5, 2019 Found it There is 2 meshes duplicated one inside the other Check this self intersection meshes. Solution will be to move outside one from another to avoid issues. plot4.obj Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member JanCZ Posted November 7, 2019 Author Member Report Share Posted November 7, 2019 (edited) Thanks Carlos one more time. At the end it wasnt about intersections in the shape. Even when I used the basic cube shape, the problem was still there. The solution was to set the Y-spacing (when you import the shape into the 3DCoat tool) to 1.1 instead of just 1. Looks like it cant handle when single pieces of the curve are "touching" itself. But it looks like a basic workflow to me, I would expect its gonna be possible or at least there will be some info about this behavior Edited November 7, 2019 by JanCZ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
