Why "Flow Along Surface" Command Fails? 3D Modeling Rhino 6 [Jewelry CAD Design Tutorial]

[@rongorrongo]

Your tutorials are great and excellent, I have learned a lot.
Thank you very much, cordial greetings from Mexico.

Welcome

[@Art_Of_Sound]

Great vid as usual PJ. So how can you invert the flow? What I mean is, I am doing simple rectangle back on to cylinder but I want the flowed geometries to face inward?

[@gethnoble4316]

Fantastik!!!

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

thank you

[@MoreJustCause]

Good day. How about if u click on a right corner but spirals projecting inside the target surface?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

yes you can click on opposite corners.

Thanks for doing videos on the basics, your videos are by far the most helpful.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Glad you like them!

Exellent tip about allocating different colours to the inside and outside surfaces! I can't tell you how many times I had that comment failed.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@spaceexploration4169]

Thats a horrible design..it looks like snakes. But the tuturial video is awesome.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

hahahha... Glad you like it

[@IamAskingWhy]

Why the spirals get deformed once they are on the target surface ?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

you can click on Rigid option to keep them not deformed.

[@mjy596]

Thank you. If you put an x or a mark on a corner of the seam of the original srf before flowing, will it be visible on the uv srf? That would help me identify the orientation when doing the flow.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

you can flow with the curve of X or text if that help.

[@CADJewellerySkills]

A lovely and quite elegant way of demonstrating this.
A couple of things to add:
a.) Turn on "Always Record History", and you can update the Flow Along Surface dynamically. So you can move the base surface and the objects will move on the target surface. This can speed up the trial and error process.
b.) Controlling the UV and Normal orientations of the surface are good for Flow Along Surface, but ultimately not 100% necessary. If you find the seam and use the same respective matching corners on the base surface and reference surface, they should orientate correctly. Failing that, you can try the next corner down and it will flip.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

great tips. thanks for sharing

[@laxmanvaswani]

Thanks a lot mam

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Most welcome 😊

[@nicolew8731]

Hi PJ, thank you for the great video, I just have a problem where my pattern seems to scale up after I have done the flow along surface command and it doesn't match the original surface. I create the UV curves from an untrimmed surface, would you be able to help?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

what about create uv curve from trimmed surface. also check on this video ua-cam.com/video/uKh9rYLVZZQ/v-deo.html

[@gwenhansellhendry3615]

Thanks PJ!!!
Very helpful tip to color the inside and outside with different colors.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Glad it was helpful!

[@nicolosenigagliesi2482]

Thanks for the teachings, you're great..
There is any solution for don't deform the arrayed objects?
Thank you so much

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

make sure rigid=Yes in the options

[@ayhm748]

Wow! Thanks for making this amazing video. Plz explain how to use array along surface

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

noted and your welcome

[@Auempron]

I like this vdo. Thank you very much.

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

Thanks for liking

[@MoreJustCause]

For projecting like so should we use “surface from planar curve” command only or we can use smthng different also?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

which part is that in the video you refer to?

[@IndiaRediscovered.]

Can we fix the tapering on top and bottom by somthing

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

not really. it is from your original shape that contract into a point on the top and bottom

[@praveenkasogu1922]

Mam if I flow any curves (circles) on surface it it doesn't look like circle after flowing y?

[@PJChenJewelryDesign]

The shape will stretch base on the surface curvature.
