Hello Everyone,

I have an issue with moving/tranlsting nodes that are placed on the circular shape.
E.g.:
How can I move nodes of internal surface of a tube to change it's wall thickness?

 

Could you please give me any advice? Thanks!

    You can use the function 'scale' on nodes to change your thickness.

    If you can share your HM model, I'll give more details.

    Also you can try Hypermorph with domains and handle concept for changing radii.

    Thank you very much. 

    The other solution I have found, is to create a circle with appropriate diameter and to project internal nodes on this line. 

    Anyway I have achieved my goal, thanks again!

    By this way, you have a irregular density on thickness !!!
