Square up
 

Ok, I have a piece I am working on where i have smoth shifted a setion. But the only problem is that it rounds all outlying parts. I need the section to be square as it is a light that is resesed in a bumper, any ideas on how to do this?

Thanks
Sean

Sorry he is a pic of the layout.

there is no pic of whats your problem is

Sorry

it says drawing failed are you attatching it using the attatch file tool? the tool is under where you type in a thread past the smilies right below options attach the file so we can all see it here .

here is what it looks like

Thats what I used.

i dont know why . am i the only one that cant see or can any of you other guys see it or is it just me ? even when i save target as it says failed

Nope, I get the same here...

I'm only seeing the very bottom part of the screen shot - try it as a JPEG.

Sorry for the problems. I am pretty new to lightwave and I am having some other issues with this model but i am a perfectionist and pay attention to every detail so. I am going to be working on it for a while.

If you want to make an area look more square, then you could bandsaw the rounded polygons close to the area you want to look squarer. Maybe someone else can explain this better or has any better ideas?

Okay here's a box with a similar kind of smooth shift in it to illustrate the point...

...and here's the same box with a bandsaw through the hole to square it off a little.... hope that helps to illustrate...

Oops - forgot to attach the pic
