To create the definition from scratch: • Surface/Freeform/Sweep2Rail - Drag and drop a Sweep 2 Rails component onto the canvas • Right-click on the Sweep2Rail-R1 input and select "Set one Curve" • When prompted, select the first rail curve in the scene (see image above) • Right-click on the Sweep2Rail-R2 input and select "Set one Curve" • When prompted, select the second rail curve in the scene (to state the obvious, see the image above) • Right-click on the Sweep2Rail-S input and select "Set one Curve" • Again, when prompted, select the section curve in the scene (no need to belabor the point here :) If all curves were properly selected, you should now see a surface spanning between each rail curve. • Surface/Freeform/Offset - Drag and drop a Surface Offset component onto the canvas • Connect the Sweep2Rail-S output to the Offset-S input • Params/Specia/Slider - Drag and drop a Numeric Slider onto the canvas • Right-click on the slider and set the following: o Name: Surface Offset o Slider Type: Floating Point o Lower Limit: 0.0 o Upper Limit: 10.0 o Value: 10.0 • Connect the slider to the Surface Offset-D input
