  • This Script Creates Curves between two Objects.
  • The curves are made at the object center.

  • You can run the script multiple times.
  • On different Objects.
  • To create a mass of hanging curves.

[edit] Instructions


Using Hang Curves

  • Download then Open up hangcurve.blend
  • Shift Select the two default planes.
  • So both objects are selected.
  • In the Text Editor makehang.py will already be open.
  • Press Alt/P to run the script.
  • The default curve is made.
  • You can now add two or even 1 more object.
  • Select two Objects, Run the script again for multiple curves.
  • In the text editor you will notice comments in Green
  • Also Variables are listed in Blue.
  • You can experiment changing the Blue Variables.
  • To adjust the Size, Gravity, Thickness & much more.
  • Start with minor changes, then experiment for different results.
  • It is good practice with Text editor scripts to save a copy of the .blend.
  • So you can save your changes without harming the original file.
  • If you can't see the new Curve, go in wire mode "Z" select all the vertices, press "W" and "Set Radius" leave it to 1 and press Ok.


[edit] Additional Information
