<<4) Create the object then bend it along the length that served as the path in
the lofter.>>
The object you describe isn't really the one that my problem is with. Rather
than bending along the path, my object has a very short path and is bend
perpedicular to the flat surface. This happens to be a flat eagle shape, wafer
thin that is bent 180 degrees after tesselating several times. The final eagle
morph object has stray faces and I'm unable to get the smooth appearance on the
surface of the eagle that originated as flat.
As a side issue. It has been brought to my attention that I may have "killed"
messages unknowingly. Since I never knew they could be killed <g>, maybe
someone can tell me how this is done. I have noticed that many times a message
has an answer but the question is missing or other responces. I'm not sure how
this is done.
By the way, this is the Jerry B. from San Diego, friend of the "Big A" (Alan
I.)
