division of a surface

[Erikilrosso]

Hello everyone, especially at gfrank!
I'm developing a job for a competition using a conceptual volume.
- after selecting an uneven surface, I gave the command dividing surface, (20 u and 10 v) adjusting the spacing for a simple rectangular grid: the problem is that the divisions are represented with an angle that is not what I care about (0.00° and 0.00°) and that the divisions adapt to what is the perimeter of the surface, p. e. u is horizontal at the ground level then rotates, level by level, until it is parallel with the sloped edge in the upper part of the perimeter of the surface. I tried to change the corners of the divisions in the element property, but with difficulty and without getting a good result. the divisions remain orthogonal whatever the perimeter of the surface.
Where am I wrong?
Thank you.

Are the surfaces / surfaces convex or concave? the superfcie was "turned" after the drawing?

 

[Erikilrosso]

Sorry I'm late, but yesterday I was at made.

- no, the surface is perfectly flat and vertical;
- Yes, I ironed one of the top to change the perimeter, so two sides are not orthogonal.

 

[gfrank]

The problem should be that.
try to reconstruct the surface/perimeter, without "stirating".

 

[Erikilrosso]

Okay, I'll try.
However, this involves a change in the shape of the model which, perhaps, will create some problems from the point of view of the volume.

Thank you.

Hello, gfrank.
After doing some tests, it turns out to me clearly that the grids must be placed on a surface with the regular perimeter and orthogonal angles, elevations tend to stand parallel to the edges, and to take different paths between them. This could be a problem if you want to create a model with a face, p.e., trapetidal, as the grids would not be vertical even if the figure had two parallel sides.
Hi.

try to build a mass with the help of the new family of the conceptual masses, using the reference plans, to join later with the command creates form.
selecting a single face, of the created form, that has not been stretched and is flat or with only a curvature on one axis, you can insert the division grighies that will always be orthogonal (or even retinals).
import the conceptual mass family into the project

if you use the direct modeling in the project, define before the worktops what you will draw the surface (if the defaults are not enough), and then, continuing, the process is the same.. .

 

[Erikilrosso]

Thank you.
I must reverify the procedure I used to create the form in conceptual modeling. I only raised it from the reference plane, then I ironed the edges of the face and applied the grid to the same, without using the reference plans.
Okay.
