I've been trying for a couple hours to get the "bender" tool in Hex 1.21 to behave like the example in the pdf with no luck. I've tried clicking on different points on the line, reorienting and rotating the line, reverting the line, using a grid, using a cylinder, using all available axes, dynamic geometry on/off and no combination so far has worked. The result with most of these combinations has been to get one 'bend' in the object when it should have two (I've been using mostly s-shaped curves while trying to figure out the tool.) Heres a pic of one example. In this particular example Im just trying to get the cylinder to follow the shape of the s-shaped curve. Am I overlooking a setting somewhere or is the tool just bugged? Thanks for any help. edit: I know I could do this particular task by extruding but I'm trying to figure out the bender tool. Thanks.
