Array, Scale and Bend

Post by mhalil »

Hi everyone,
First of all I'm sorry for my bad english,
I can make some shape with array and rotate (Draft WB - Array Tools - Array Command - Array Type: Polar) but I can't scale (step by step) or bend the shape
I wonder that, what I want is possible in FreeCAD.

Please look at the pictures at bellow.

I'm doing this for scaling after "Array" command;
* "Downgrade" (Draft WB) or "Explode Compound" (Part WB) the shape
* "Clone" the all part (Draft WB)
* Change the all part scale step by step

you may need to do stuff like this with macros, or maybe lattice2 addon has something you need, I never used it so I wouldn't know, but it's supposed to have more advanced array options
