Hi everyone!
I’m curious for different ways to model an oloid? I’ve got this one with 4 2railSweeps and a Join. Something doesn’t feel right because when unrolled I get the difference between starting and flattened area. I believe those should be the same with developable surfaces, right?
Thanks,

Hello - try DevLoft on pairs of arcs.

Thanks Pascal!
Unroll works well with this method!
However, the display of a polysurface becomes faceted after I join the surfaces together. Is this solely display issue and can it be solved somehow?
On the left is the joined closed polysurface. Right are the 4 surfaces.
nice,could you upload the model?

It’s just a side effect of the default meshing settings. If you use custom mesh setting, the surface is rendered properly.
That’s great! Thanks!
