Shape Bender producing 2D results

[mannequiin]

Good day. This is my first time using Shape Bender. I have done all that I can but cannot seem to surpass this issue. Whenever Shape Blender is applied there are no errors...just flat, 2D results.

Post your skp in v 2017!

Looks like you posted the same image twice.

Else Shape Bender works fine like it must to do with a vertical flat group!

For avoid the big deformation of one part of the cross result
Take the same length of the horizontal cross'length than the length's Arc!
That is not the case here!

Maybe True Bend by Thomthom will be more suitable ?

My apologies! Here is the true before ans after:

You need to attach your model for us to give a full answer, but it looks like it is doing what you have told it to do.

Here in the SKP in 2017.
I was following a tutorial and modified the form a bit to suit my own interests. In the tutorial, the individual is able to achieve a more 3-dimensional form, if you will

It's what I thought from your photo, the arc is on the wrong plan.

Thank you so much for your quick response!

Update: It worked beautifully!

As said in my previous post you will have deformations!
(needing or not, depending of the result really wanted!

Arc's length is 24,15 m
Line's length is 22, 94 m

So for a perfect result arc must be reduced!

About True Bend
You must make a component if you want a specific axis!

As True Bend works only Object by the middle maybe you can use this little trick!

Open the component and add a little line!
