Helix

Creation method#

There are two options for creating a Helix node.#

• The first way to create a Helix node is using the search list, which is opened by double left-clicking in the workspace. You can write the name of the node you need or words associated with this node.
  • helix
• The second way is to select a Helix node from the menu that opens from the top left.
  • Menu > Tool > Primitive curves > Helix

Steps#

• Create a Helix node.
• Connect the center point of the helix to the first port.
• The second port gets the pitch of the helix.
• The third port gets the height of the helix.
• The fourth port gets the big radius of the helix.
• The fifth port gets the small radius of the helix.
• The sixth port gets the direction of the helix.
• The seventh port gets a boolean that makes helix the left hand.

After creating the node, connect the center point of the helix to the first port. Connect the pitch of the helix to the second port, height to the third, big radius to the fourth, small radius to the fifth, direction to the sixth, and a boolean that makes helix the left hand to the seventh port. On the output port, you will receive the resulting helix.
