How to deform a group along curve?

Hello,

 

Probably easy question but I can't google it: I have a group of object that looks like a wire. I created a curve that looks like the object - the question is how to constrain the group to the curve, so if I edit the curve - the group will edit as well?

I need to make the group more like flat...

 

Here is an example picture with wire and a curve.

Hi @Anonymous

 

Generally when making a wire like that I use a cylinder, shift select the curve and then Extrude. This way I have my wire and if I move any of the control points it will effect the wire.

 

In your case, you say you want to make it flatter. Couldn't you just scale the whole model down in the Y axis to make it appear flatter?

 

Please feel free to come back with more information if I'm misunderstanding your question!

I didn't mean to make it flatter, I just wanted to make a new form of the wire...
