Hi Ryan- How would you orient the square? For now, the workaround is - select a round pipe (un capped) and ChangeDegree in V to 1.

let’s not get bogged down with the details pascal. haha I guess you have a type-in or gizmo for setting degrees off vertical at various points along the path if that’s desired… Same way you change pipe diameters along the path.

Yes, use Grasshopper. If you want a definition to show how, let me know… probably only a few components are needed.

A couple of scripts are mentioned here… [image] Rhinoscript - square pipe script problem Scripting There is a rhinoscript that is posted on the developer page http://wiki.mcneel.com/developer/scriptsamples/squarepipe?ModPagespeed=noscript There is an error that occurs o…

Square pipe built into Rhino would be most excellent. ChangeDegree does not work for a polysurface. Orientation of the square could be default perpendicular(normal?) to the line and oriented on the z-axis. The rotation could be added with a degree input? Something along the lines of sweep1?

8 years later & this would still be super useful!

All of those staircases I build…

any news on this. Can it be implemented? Does a script exist?

Have a look here: https://wiki.mcneel.com/people/mitchheynick The toolset contains a script for squre pipes iirc. No idea if it works out of the box under rhino 8 though.

I think what would be magical. is to have, something similar to sweep Modifier in 3D Max.
