ZigZag

Hey everyone,

I see there is a zigzag script, it sounds interesting but I don't know how to use it.

I have a filled circle with a profile curve.

I split curve, select 2 opposite sets of 3 points, go to script>zig zag and press ok. Nothing happens.

So I take the fill off the shape, and try again. Nothing.

So I cut by micrcle in half so I only have two croissant shaped curves facing each other. Nothing still.


How does that work?

Thanks

I didn't know about this script, but just tested it and it's very nice.
You need to select two independent lines and then apply the script. It won't work if the lines are connected.
You can simulate connection by putting the extreme points close each other, anyway.

Thanks as always Selgin. I've figured it out now. Not sure if I would ever use it but it's good to know.

I thought it could help creating these kind of wavy stripes of reflections going across solid shapes in some styles of drawing but it's not exactly that. I'll but it to use eventually.


Thanks again
