      Hello everybody,

      is there a way to make clones on splines pointing in the direction of normals?

      I have a model made out of polygones. There are splines for the mesh.
      I cloned cones on the splines. Now the cones point in random directions. They should point only outside like the normals of the base mesh do.

      Unfortunately I cannot upload screenshot or files here.
      You can find the cinema file here:

        Hi Franz,

        You posted in the site issue forum but didn't ask anything about access problems.
        If you have any problems asking questions in the Q&A forum, please clear your access to post in the C&A; thank you very much.

        The Site issue forum is not the place for Application questions.

        What you need is a Rail Spline.
