Lightwave users? I have a couple questions

[myxpykalix]

I have a question. I have forgotten this and i need a little refresher. In the past I have loaded or created a profile similar to this

9097

then loaded it up and tell it to make a 360 degree and it just makes a complete model automatically. Does this sound familiar to any users?
If you know the keystroke sequence, or a link to a tutorial i'd appreciate it.

Though I usualy use rhino to model, I belive I remeber the function is in the modeler under lathe tool.

see http://www.creativemac.com/2001/09_sep/tutorials/gilchrist_modeling.htm

Yea, it's the lathe tool. The shortcut is Shift and L key.

Nice to see another Lightwave user one here.

thanks for that...for some reason my toolbox on the left side has disappeared in v9 modeler and i can't get it back. This is the problem, if you don't use it everyday you forget how to do things. I have to figure that one out next...!!
I have some lightwave tutorial video tapes from 20 yrs ago. I guess its time to plug in the vcr again.

You must've hit Alt-F2 by mistake. Just do that combination to make the toolbar disappear. :o)

I'm using v9.5 by the way.
