@sovitek, I too am having an issue of aligning and rotating an element to a curve. In my case, I’m trying to insert a Generic Model representing Fireproofing around a Beam. I find that the recommended Solid.ThinShell node breaks when Structural Connections are added to the framing members. I am able to get my diagram to grab the curve of the beam, set a point midway, and align the vector. As you can see, I’m unable to achieve true alignment on two of the beams that are not aligned x and y. Am I missing something in my diagram?
