Bend Object

As the name suggests, objects are bent with the Bend Object. The bending object has a yellow gripper on its upper side that is visible when selected. This handle can be used to control it interactively in the editor. The two arrows in the deformer preview symbolize the bending plane.

How do you bend in a certain direction?

Proceed as follows:

1. Place the deformer in the center of the intended bend.
2. Turn the deformer with its Z-axis perpendicular to the bending plane, as bending always takes place in the X-Y plane - provided the Angle is set to 0°. Rotate the Y-axis in the longitudinal direction of the object.
3. Bend by increasing or decreasing the thickness depending on the bending direction!
4. The bending radius can be regulated by Size.Y.
