Dear Members, Using squish command in Rhino gives a result which is not good for me but I can’t succeed to understand if I’m using it in a proper manner. the 2D surfaces are smaller than I’ve expected The options which I’ve used are: ( SplitSeams=No PreserveBoundary=Yes Deformation=StretchOnly …

oh, you can ignore that, it was just to make a boundary around the flattened mesh and it fails occasionally - the mesh you want is in the ‘orient’ component, which you must ‘preview’ so it’s visible, and hit the reset button on kangaroo to re-simulate also bear in mind this was done for one of th…

It works for one side [the blue one] but for the other doesn’t work! There is another technical problem: In the first attachment I didn’t included the lines from the 3D surface which is defining the upper pieces! This because the Squish command ask for selecting them and is flattening them in the s…

looking into it, for now you should probably ‘squish’ each surface at a time (don’t input all to-be-flattened surfaces at once as the script is built for one-surface-at-a-time scenario?

I’ve tried this but it doesn’t work for the blue half!

[image] PetcuDaniel: It works for one side [the blue one] but for the other doesn’t work! I don’t know what you are referring to, the .3dm you just shared contains only the red side again, not blue, which supposedly doesn’t work. …I’ll grab it from the original file…

updated here: SHOE_LAST_FLATTENING_B.gh (70.3 KB) test your two sides:

Hi, Now it works for both sides! I don’t know what are the ghost surfaces - sorry if this was the problem-I’ll try to understand! Each surface is containing some curves which is defining the 3D pieces. These should be flattened together with the surfaces in order to build the 2D upper’s pieces [ho…

try this SHOE_LAST_FLATTENING_C.gh (464.5 KB) it will bring back the curve points (for some reason it discards some, so I can’t get the curves back): [image] Can’t tell you if it’s 100% accurate, but what is? haha - once baked though (the flattened curve points) you can quickly draft curves wit…

I’m not sure if is accurate [or how much!]! 2D curves seems to be a projection of 3D curves on the flattened surface, which is not correct! A curve is not flattened [see the yellow curve]! I’ve to understand the process, to play a little with it and to compare with some real shoe last flattened s…

also you have ghost surfaces that caused you the problems

Map curves to mesh (all faces of the mesh as one face)
