I was wondering if anyone has problems with the extrude command in T-Splines. I am told this is a bug in Rhino. Extrude is the most important command. Any ideas out there? V5 using 64bit.

Martin, I'm not sure anyone knows that answer to that here. You might want to check with T-Splines.

 

 

Thanks,

I have checked with T-Splines and no luck there. I can't justify upgrading to T-Splines V3 with such a major command absent. 

Martin.

Can you be a bit more specific on what fails?

 

Both tsExtrude and tsExtrudeLine work here with RH5 ans Tsplines 3 64bit

Alt for extrude and the + is there when dragging but the edge is moved rather than extruded. Let me know if there is anything specific I can show you.
To add to this extrude works in smooth mode but not in box mode. I have just updated to the most recent v5 version. mh.
I see the same here, extrudes in smooth not in box mode.
Does this tell us anything about the problem? mh.

So, we figured out what the problem was - Rhino V5 changed the definition of a 'valid' mesh.  Specifically, faces which are zero-area are now invalid.  The problem is that when extruding a face, the first thing we do is change the topology (before we move the faces), so right after an extrude we temporarily have an invalid mesh.

 

I talked with Dale Lear and Brian Gillespie, and we figured out a fix.  There's a T-Splines 3.1 RC that should have the fix in it - if you have time, give it a shot and let me know if it's still broken.. :)

 

Thanks.

Thank you Tom, The problem seems to be fixed with 3.1
