IStonia can you make simple tool - Tube, it will creates tube from spline, and will have these parametrs:
Radius
Segments A
Segments B
Twist
-
This request would be very useful.
-
IStonia, if it is hard to make this UI based tool you can create SL tool.
If you scroll it will change radious, if you move up or down it will add or remove segments A if you move left or right it will add or remove segments B. If you RMB drag lert or right it will twist or untwist.

IStonia, check pleas email, I have some urgent question.

SL tools works really good!
Some remarks.
Create Tube From Spline remember twist amount, but it have to reset twist amount everytime you activate this tool.
Create Tube From Edge as I understood use Create Spline Opened/Closed.. to create tube. Create Spline Opened/Closed.. create smooth spline and we have bad result like here:

Can you pleas make Create Spline Opened/Closed.. to produce List Spline instead so we will have always good result.
Object Shortcut Tools > Create Tube.
I see we only have P_Create Tube? No tool with UI?
-
Istonia, Create Tube From Edge. I wrote in previous reply how to modify it because it produce not correct reult some times, but it was not best solution. I analyze all that stuff and think that we need both tube from smooth spline and tube from list spline.
So lets create justnew basic SL tool - Create Tube From Edge(List).

To switch smooth/sharp style, tap Space and Caps-Lock keys at the same time.

Geometry > Create > Tube. Create tubes from selected splines.
P_Create Tube is removed.

Nice!!!

nice tool!!
just some quick test and i got unexpected result (a little bit twist at tube) compare with slide command.

i think this streamline need command "use path curve at tangent space option"(check or uncheck). So it will get nice result.

the streamline create tube from edge work great now. But create tube from spline still a little bit twis like my previous video
https://sendvid.com/c3jktqjw
my suggest is give the create tube from spline command (use path curve tangent space option like in spline slide command) using CAPS+SPACE.
-

Instead of Caps+Space, I use Enter. So it can works in both tools.
Also number keys can be used to speed up segment setting while wheeling.
-
work like a charm. Instead enter, can it use double tap space key?
one thing stuck in my mind about the adding segment.
can the streamline tube from spline adding segment just for chamfer vertex spline? I mean if its spline perpendicular its not adding a segment.

the result sometimes its good sometimes its bad.

When its circle shape the edge ring is no longer tidy.

and the second its look like this.
(http://s33.postimg.org/5o0269j4r/nvilsegment.jpg) (http://postimg.org/image/5o0269j4r/)
and im try scrollwheel and press number its not working(adding segment). Is it just me?
-

You need to press down the number key and scroll at the same time. For example, press down 0 key, then for each scroll click the segment will increase by 10.
-
now its looking great!. Also thats scroll wheel works pretty well too. Its actually increment by number in your input. I thought it behave like a cut, or other streamline tool. Thank You!
