Non-Linear scaling of Bodies

[marco.poggensee]

Hello,

I have created glasses in the Form environment. To change the size of the glasses to match different nose sizes, I want to stretch the body in a specific area with parameters.

Is there any way to gradually scale the body? 

x: position

y: scale factor

Cutting, Scaling, and Re-joining the body into different parts always leaves a bend.  

Thank you!

Hi,

My recommendation is not to scale but to control the change of geometries via parameters.

Hi Günther,

thank you, but I´m not sure where to implement the parameters.  In the Form environment? I don´t know how to parameterize Faces in the Forms.

Hi,

If you want to have a precise result you should deal with surface modeling.

Here are some tutorials
