I made a “rolled piece” which I want the piece behind to follow, except that it doesn’t work for me. When I flow along surface, it rolls the other way, no matter which corner I pick. When I try to just bend the piece, it’s distorted. Any ideas? Thank you.
Can you post a .3dm file with your geometry?
Hello - try drawing the cross-section - a line with a curl at the top, ExtrudeCrv then Trim from a view 90 degrees around with a curve in the shape of the outline, in 2d, of the paper.

as you can see, the “flow” turns out tiny, not like the original size, and does not follow the curve at all.
I tried to do it in two steps, but mine did not come close to how nice yours is. Mine gets super deformed.
I’m sure these are excellent instructions, but I have no idea what to do:) Guess I’m a visual learner.
Here is my file. What am I doing again? flow_problem.3dm (3.5 MB)
This is how I made it:
Hi Izabela - here is what I’d do -

Probably, I’d pay a little more attention than I did here to getting the cutout curves nice and smoothly matched from the scroll to the lower part (Blue to magenta match in my file)
-Pascal
what am I missing here? my first bend is nice, but the second one gets all wonky and distorted, just like in your video, except that yours fixes itself in a split second.
Thanks guys!
