How to Use

Fit Curve

By default, Fit Curve moves the object along the curve using its X axis and origin point. This means the front of your object should face right (+X direction) when there is no rotation for it to follow the curve correctly. If your object moves sideways or looks wrong, try changing the Axis setting in the modifier panel or rotating the object in Edit mode.

Note

For best results, make sure your object’s origin (pivot point) is in the center before using Fit Curve. You can use Object -> Set Origin -> Origin to Geometry in the viewport menu

Do send a message if you have any issues or questions via info@configurate.net.
