Next to the "BevOb" button you now have a "TaperOb" button to give a name of a curve object which defines the width of extrusion of the 'BevObj' along the curve. The TaperOb curve typically is horizontal, where the height denotes the width. Important rules; - Only the firste curve in TaperObj is evaluated - the first width is left, last width is right - it scales the width of normal extrusions based on evaluating the taper curve; which means sharp corners in taper curve won't be easily visible (That latter feature could be improved by extrusing based on the points in the taper curve; this is a *lot* more work)
Welcome to the fun world of open source. For instructions on building and installing Blender, please see the file named INSTALL. ---------------------.Blanguages and the .blender directory--------------------- The .blender directory holds various data files for Blender. In the 2.28a release those are the .Blanguages file containing a list of translations, the translations themselves and a default ttf font. Blender checks for the presence of this directory in several locations: - the current directory - your home directory - On OSX, the blender bundle is also checked - On Windows, the installation dir is checked. If you get a 'File ".Blanguages" not found' warning, try to copy the .blender dir to one of these locations (your home directory being recommended). -------------------------------------Links-------------------------------------- Getting Involved: http://www.blender.org/docs/get_involved.html Community: http://www.blender3d.org/Community/ Main blender development site: http://www.blender.org/ The Blender project homepage: http://projects.blender.org/projects/bf-blender/ Documentation: http://www.blender.org/modules.php?op=modload&name=documentation&file=index Bug tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=125&group_id=9&func=browse Feature request tracker: http://projects.blender.org/tracker/?atid=128&group_id=9&func=browse
