Some ponderings

(Rod Centre)
Bend Null Point : This point never moves during Bending.

(Rod Top)
Bend Angle Control Point : This point determines the Bend angle (from Null point) displayed during Bending.

Bend Normal : A vector that passes through the centre of the finished Bend.

(Top Clamp point)
First Clamp Point : This point defines the first boundary between bent / unbent object.

(Bottom Clamp point)
Second Clamp Point : This point defines the second boundary between bent / unbent object.

Pivot Axis : The axis around which a bend is created.

Pivot Axis Centre : The point through which the pivot axis passes.

For TopRad

(Rod Top)
Bend Angle Control Point : This point determines the Bend angle (from Null point) displayed during Bending. Its distance from the Null Point also specifies the inner bend radius.

Just for discussion purposes - any other ideas /mods / suggestions ... write 'em down.

Gotta bear in mind that if changes are made to the 'names' then all existing tuts will be out of date. Adding info (lots of space on info line atm) ... without name changes will improve the situation without those hassles Smile
