CorelDRAW X5 :: Shape Extrusion With A Twist / Spiral?

Mar 6, 2012

I need to draw a transmission gear with spiral teeth, rather than straight teeth on a typical gear. I know how to work the extrusion tool, but I can't get the shape to twist so the teeth are all aligned.

Is there any way to do this in Corel Draw X5? I'm pretty sure Corel Draw is sophisticated enough to do something like this, I just can't figure out how. The manual shows how to extrude, but nothing really beyond that.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Twist Object Properly

Jun 10, 2013

Essentially, I am attempting to create something similar to this: [URL] .....

But cannot get enough twisting action. I just need to know how to twist an object properly. For example, what I have done is created a two sketches of hexagons on offset planes, and lofted between the two sketches.  If I rotate one hexagon sketch slightly, it will result in a twisting effect. However, if I want to get any significant amount of twisting, rotating the sketch does not work. I have tried with a goil, but that gets the entire object (with a sweep, in this case) to spiral.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Sheet Metal - Fold (bend And Twist)

Apr 23, 2012

I have the following sheet metal application: A flat bar steel (strip) 40x1mm is bent and twisted around three cylinders. In our process, the strip is running in loop around these cylinders, like a conveyor-belt. At first, it is bent around the first cylinder (blue). Then, it is bent and twisted around the second cylinder (green). Between these cylinders, a flat part is modelled so that the strip will be bent upwards (twisted) around the next cylinder. The same is done between cylinder two and three.  In praxis, when I bend the strip, no flat part will be present, because the strip is quite stiff, as it is spring steel. In my Inventor model, no stiffness of the strip is taken into consideration.

I am looking for a better way to model this strip, where stiffness of the material is taken into consideration.

AutoCAD Inventor :: How To Generate Guide Rail To Control Twist

Sep 18, 2012

I am trying to model a forged steel table base so I can create some tooling to reproduce it.  See the attached photo of the base.  I am able to sweep along my 3D projected sketch path but there is a twist at the center that I believe I need a guide rail to control.  I have tried to draw a rail but it fails. 

I suspect I am not drawing my guide rail correctly as to create the slight twist.  I was considering drawing a shallow helix along the 3d sweep path but not sure that this is the best direction to head next.  I have attached the .ipt with the sweep (without guide path being used).

I’ve attached an image of what I'm trying to create in 3D .I can make two straight prongs with no problem, but I can’t figure out how to get them to twist around each other as they are in the picture. It’s important that the two prongs are symmetrical and do not merge into one another where they twist.

AutoCAD 2010 :: 3D Curve Sweep Without Twist At The End Of Path?

May 23, 2012

I'm trying to do a 3d curve stair rail. I had the 3d spline path, I had the polyline rail profile, but after I sweep the profile, it end up being twisted at the end of the rail. Same problem happens  when I did a sweep using a helix path, imagine a vertically placed rectangular profile at one end of the path then after using sweep command, the other end was somehow twisted on a certain degree. How can I avoid this twisting problem

See the before and after image. I wanted the rectangle profile to remain vertical throughout the whole sweep

Photoshop :: Overexposed Face With A Marquee Twist?

Dec 11, 2012

I can draw the marquee squares or elipse. I can draw them and constrain them and reposition them.

What I cannot figure out is once I have drawn the shape, let go of the mouse and want to THEN go and change the size & shape of the marquee, how to do it. How do I make the top/bottom of a circular elipse change?  And then bring a side in?  Do I have to keep re-drawing until I am perfect? 
 
I have some images with some very tough lighting.  I think the images were shot in the wrong camera ISO settings.  So most of the pictures have 4-5 people in them and it is there faces that have this HUGE amount of overexposure going on.   How can I isolate their faces to work on the exposure/lighting/color correction for their heads?   And then select inverse(?) and correct the rest of the area?

Illustrator :: Any Way To Apply Twist Effect Twice In Opposite Directions

Feb 13, 2014

I am trying to draw a sun-like shape. I started with a star polygon and apply the Twist effect. That gets me pretty good arms on the sun, but I'd like for something a bit more flame-like, so I'd like to get the arms to now bend back in the opposite direction. Is there any way to use or modify the Twist effect so that I can apply it a second time but bend further out in the opposite direction? Or is there some other good way to get the rotation along all the arms.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Using Interference To Determine Cut Shape?

Mar 1, 2013

Is there a way to use interference checks to determine what material needs to be subtracted away from other parts to get the clearance needed? (See Attached) The way I typically handle this is to project the lines from one part onto the sketch of another and proceed accordingly, however as you can see, it didn't work out well in this instance as the face of the part in question is not parallel with the sketch plane in the other..Therefore making the cut location inaccurate.

AutoCAD Inventor :: Beveled Edge On Box Shape

Mar 6, 2012

I am fresh on the inventor bandwagon so this may seem remedial.

I have a box shape, open in the front which will be 1 part of a larger furniture unit.

I would like to create a beveled edge along the front face to receive a similarly beveled drawer.

This has been a problem.

I've read that I should look in the surface window and choose planar surface, but the inventor 2012 that I have has no planar surface tab.

So, any better way to create a bevel on an open box.
