Creation method#

There are two options for creating a Horizontal Planes node.#

  • The first way to create a Horizontal Planes 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.
    • horPlanes
  • The second way is to select a Horizontal Planes node from the menu that opens from the top left.
    • Menu > Tool > Toolset > Horizontal Planes

Steps#

  • Create a Horizontal Planes node.
  • Connect the curve witch wants to divide to the first port.
  • Connect the number of segments to the second port.
  • Connect the alignments of the planes to the third port.

Once the node is created, connect the curve witch wants to divide to the first port, the number of segments to the second port, and the alignments of the planes to the third port. On the output ports, you will get the resulting curvature planes and parameter values at division points.
