Hi,

I'm trying to animate a flat sheet wrapping up into a cylinder, and was wondering what the easiest way to do it is?

cheers,


JW.

Always happy to help another Southerner, are you anywhere near Brighton?

You can use the displacement plugin "Deform: Bend" to do this. I've attached a scene file plus object to illustrate.

Regards

Andy

Thanks Andy!

I'm not that near Brighton, although I guess its all relative.. I'm based in Woking.

Thanks for including the example, I though it had to be fairly straight forward but I haven't used that plugin before, so I didn't know if it was the way to go.

cheers,


JW.
