David,
I've managed to replicate the error. And this is where my lack of
understanding about the specifics of paths comes in to play. I assume
that if I have one path of 200 base curves and one path of 200 offset
curves, that my objective for having them in paths is to have 200 2D
paths that each contain CurveBase(i), CurveOffset(i) so I used the
series components to try to get the path viewer component to say
something like :
Structure (Paths = 200)
path {0;0} (N = 2)...
But by default the definition created that with 3D paths, saying :
Structure (Paths = 200)
path {0;0;0} (N = 2)
Intuitively this seems like it has an extra dimension in the path, so
i began using the flatten toggle on the series component to get back
to 2D paths. This is where the error occurs. Is my intuition
incorrect? Can you explain how the paths work correctly as a 3D path?
Shouldn't this definition run much quicker than the same one that I
have done using VB.NET components to achieve local lofts?
Thanks.
Best,
ga
