Convert mesh to spline line path

Anonymous — Mon, 12 Jul 2021 13:14:13 GMT

Hi,

Is it possible to create a path in the form of an object (mesh) and then convert this path into a spline line path to put on it an advancing cube for example?

thank you in advance

Yes: in the Edit Poly-modifier/the Editable Poly-object there's the Create Shape/Create Shape from Selection command. This will... well, create a shape-object from your edge-selection.

Thank you, the problem is that when I select the entire path of the object the cube does not advance on a single line
