Curve to tube mesh wont give me the expected result

Hello,

 

today I wanted to try out the new "curve to tube" function within the bonus tools. However it does not look nice as you can see in the picture:

(The grid looks so small because I have scaled the curve high above the actual needs because I couldn't decrease the width inside the "curve to tube" tool less then 0.1 ô.Ò)

I have tried some settings but it was always the same.

 

Any hidden setting which I haven't seen yet ?

 

Regards

It's probably doing that because you scaled the curve.....create the curve to look as you want it with out scaling it.

 

Just extrude a face along the curve....

I have frozen the transformations which I had forgotten to mention but thanks for you reply 🙂

I was able fixing this by turning the EP Curve into an NURBS Curve and then rebuilding the curve to increase the amount of points did the trick. And now it works 😛
