What can you find if you use "circle" as key word in "Tool Search Window"?

Thanks Steve and Istonia.

I would have not figured those thing out by myself.
Everyday I try to model a few small things to get better.

Question here I searched for an array tool to circular array an item around a cylinder...I searched the help file and the forum and nothing.....Is the array tool in Nvil called the pose tool?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pFIJVWbRscQ

Tnx,

Another quick question.
When "Show Spline tangent flow" is enabled, the normal's/flow are very small. The size of them now appears to be bound to the size of the spline vertex size, so zooming in does not help (just makes them smaller).

Is there a way to increase the size of the spline tangent flow without having to increase the size of the spine vertex?

Hi,
"use loft curve tangent spaces" not working. Have attached example file. Pics showing results from older version I use. No rush to fix it.

"Spline rig" working good.

I can't recall when they were removed and why. Just put them back on. Hopefully, it still works. I don't have time to check it out.

By the way, you can try out this new tool

You have to create your own buttons.

On the rotation snap it works but when I try it on my model it seems to turn it?

As I put forward earlier, using rotation snap on polygons can cause issue due to orientation of manipulator.
A simple example:-
pic_01. rotation snap polygon on right to polygon on left.
pic_02. result, not as wanted.
pic_03. shows manipulator orientation (on polygon to be target), with X facing -Z and Z facing to +Y
pic_04. shows manipulator orientation (on polygon to be set), with X facing +Y and Z facing +Z
So when snap rotation is used, the polygon will rotate 90deg anti-clockwise giving the result shown in pic_2

I need to figure out how to screen capture.
On the button question I was thinking of only 4 buttons for the items i use more often like the edge align,guideline, straighten etc.

I am getting the hang of this but there are still things I could not figure out I have tried for 3 hours on this already trying to fix but I cant....
- On the loopcut.jpg let say I have added 3 loopcuts how would I add an additional loopcut with the same distance as the previous 3 ones...so the blue distance should match the distance of the green ones.
-On the wheelwellhow.jpg after boolean a cilinder in the box how would I add a kind of offset so I can extrude it like the one I did in Moi3d.
-On the subdmess.jpg when I subd my model I does make a mess where I performed a boolean what is the way of avoiding this of fixing it.

Hopefully this would be my last question for this month lol so I can move on and practice some more....getting there. Tnx!

If you can make some short videos that would help us to understand what you are trying to do.
It is just too hard to get what you mean by these pictures.

You can create your user buttons for your tools and options. It is not practical for the program to provide all the buttons you need. If you are not sure how to do it, have a look at this video at 12:33, https://youtu.be/mVRehG-kOQQ

Community Help / Spline Loft (missing option)
« Last post by steve on March 01, 2025, 05:27:51 am »
Hi Istonia
I have been using an old version of Nvil, so not sure when this change was mode (or if a bug), but 2 options are missing from "spline Loft"(use loft curve tangent spaces / even path segments).

If that removal was intentional, why remove them?

Best Regards,
Steve
