How can there not be an arch tool in Maya, or have I completely missed that? Does anyone know of a simple way to create an polygon arch where you can set the inner radius, outer radius, degree and thickness of the arch without using curves. I’ve search for a script without results. One way is to create a pipe and then delete the excess polygons, but I don’t like that method.
It’s a simple tool for a basic shape that should have been there from beta 1.
