  How to Fill Imported Path

  Posted by Gino Terribilini on October 3, 2011 at 8:01 pm

  I’ve created my Working Paths file, open it in C4D, I have ‘Connect Spines’ ticked, I select all my paths and connect them, I create Extrude NURBS, and move my object under it and voila.. it created a 3D object. The problem here is that its creating a 3D Object of the path itself when what I want is the path to be filled (i.e. its extruding the outline rather than a solid). How do I ‘Fill’ my object or make it a solid?? Thanks!!

  I think what you want to do is enable caps…then you could reduce the depth of the extrude if you don’t want much thickness.

  Ah ha! Figured it out by watching the “Vector Logo to 3D Logo” on this forum. All I had to do was select ‘Extrude NURBS’ in my Objects tab, then go to the Attributes window and tick ‘Hierarchial’
